DateBox.DefaultFormat (Google Web Toolkit Javadoc)

java.lang.Object
- com.google.gwt.user.datepicker.client.DateBox.DefaultFormat

All Implemented Interfaces:

DateBox.Format

Enclosing class:

DateBox
```
public static class DateBox.DefaultFormat
extends java.lang.Object
implements DateBox.Format
```
Default DateBox.Format class. The date is first parsed using the DateTimeFormat supplied by the user, or DateTimeFormat.PredefinedFormat.DATE_TIME_MEDIUM by default.
If that fails, we then try to parse again using the default browser date parsing.
If that fails, the dateBoxFormatError css style is applied to the DateBox. The style will be removed when either a successful parse(DateBox,String, boolean) is called or format(DateBox,Date) is called.
Use a different DateBox.Format instance to change that behavior.
