valueOf

public static DateInputAdapter valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null

adapt

public String adapt(String date,
                    Locale locale)

Transforms date input to cover formats not supported in Java.

Some rules for formatting dates have changed across Java versions. Certain input values which were working in JIRA before, don't work anymore. We could tell customers to HDFU but let's be friendly and nice instead.

For example, this will change "1/Mrz/2017" to "1/Mär/2017". Only the latter is supported since Java 8, but some people got used to using the former.
