public class MDateField
extends JFormattedTextField

Date entry widget with built in Formatter/Parser and Calendar popup to facilitate input. The earliest and latest possible values may be set using the setMinimum and setMaximum methods, this causes the calendar popup to allow date within the range to be selected. Dates outside of the range may be entered by typing directly into the field.
