I managed to fix this by expanding the converter to be able to handle
java.util.Date.
I made it extend from HtmlCalendarRenderer.CalendarDateTimeConverter, and
added a getAsDate method that converts the joda DateTime to a Date object,
like this:
public Date getAsDate(FacesContext facesContext, UIComponent
uiComponent) {
Object value = RendererUtils.getObjectValue(uiComponent);
if (value instanceof DateTime) {
return ((DateTime) value).toDate();
}
throw new IllegalArgumentException(
"Expected submitted value of type DateTime for
component : "
+
RendererUtils.getPathToComponent(uiComponent));
}
