Query Regarding org.eclipse.nebula.widgets.calendarcombo.CalendarCombo Date Format behavior [message #694953]

Hello Experts -

I have a requirement where in I need when a user picks a date in the calendar combo, it should be displayed as d-MMM-yyyy HH:mm (example: 21-Jul-2011 00:00) in the text control of the calendar combo widget.

I did the following while creating the calendarcombo instance -

CalendarCombo cc = new CalendarCombo(inner, SWT.NONE, new CustomSettings(), null);

where CustomSettings is defined as follows :

public class CustomSettings extends DefaultSettings {

public String getDateFormat()
{
return "d-MMM-yyyy";
}
}

Here is what I then do:

1. Pick a date. The system displays the date as 21-Jul-2011 00:00 in the text
control of the calendar combo widget.
2. Now I try to change the date by pulling up the widget. The system throws the
following error -

java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: "Jul"
at java.lang.NumberFormatException.forInputString(Unknown Source)
at java.lang.Integer.parseInt(Unknown Source)

at org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Display.readAndDispatch(Display.java:3657)
at tablecombo.Tester.main(Tester.java:101)

Clearly, the code inside the calendar combo is facing problems with parsing the String "Jul". What am I missing in my code that can resolve this issue ? Please let me know.

Regards.
