Hi,

This is a general JMX question, and really has nothing to do with Spring's JMX support, so feel free to post a humbling reply, delete the post, or whatever....

I have a method which takes a Date parameter and is available via the JMX console. Whenever, I try to provide a value for this parameter, I get a ParseException, presumably because the date I'm providing is not in the correct format.

My questions are:
  • How can I find out what the default expected date format is?
  • Can I change this format to the format I'd like to use (e.g. 'yyyy-MM-dd')?


Of course I could simply change the parameter to a String and convert it to a Date within the method body, but I'd rather leave the parameter type as a Date if possible.

Thanks in advance,
DM
