All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Cloneable

public class OpenmrsDateFormat
extends SimpleDateFormat

An extension of SimpleDateFormat that defaults to setLenient(false) and for date patterns that end in yyyy rejects any dates that don't end in 4 digits (to prevent against 2-digit years being interpreted incorrectly); for date patterns that don't end in yyyy, it verifies that the date string is the same length as the pattern string
