i am using JDateChooser for selecting date, But i also want to facilitate type date in DD/MM/YYYY format.

Answer 1

The api has a method setDateFormatString

http://www.toedter.com/en/jcalendar/api/com/toedter/calendar/JDateChooser.html#setDateFormatString(java.lang.String)

Answer 2

From the api, I'd use the JDateChooser(java.lang.String dateFormatString, boolean startEmpty) constructor as so;

JDateChooser jdc = new JDateChooser("DD/MM/YYYY", true);
