Java's SimpleDateFormat can be set not to allow for lenient parsing. Unfortunately NSTimestampFormatter lacks this ability.

I have created a subclass of NSTimestampFormatter which for parsing uses an instance of SimpleDateFormat to create a Date which I then convert to an NSTimestamp

IIRC SimpleDateFormat is not thread safe. Oh joy!

OK -
Now I am trying to validate dates. I hate dates. I especially hate java dates, but I digress.

So now I have this little wizard component that asks for a date. It has a date formatter.

However, someone could type in 13/33/09 and it will take it, albeit change it to something else.

What is the best way to ensure a proper date is submitted or else messaged back to them?
