Unable to use java.util.Calendar
I seem to be unable to use a CMP bean that has fields of type java.util.Calendar with a mySQL database. (I am using XDoclet to generate the bean). I can create the bean class and deploy it okay and the table is created with the correct SQL columns. But when I try to create an instance of the bean I get a ClassCastException (see below). I can use a java.util.Date okay but I'm trying to integrate the bean with an Axis service which requires Calendar not Date.
I converted the fields to dates and tried to create extra methods in the bean that take/return a calendar object and set/get the date fields but this causes the value objects to fail at compilation as the data object doesn't contain all the methods. Besides I would prefer not to have an extra layer converting between date & calendar.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
