By mevivs:

The reason I changed the date accessor was that it was persisting dates as string (at least in cassandra). So I could define a DateType validation class on the column in cassandra metadata. This seemed incorrect to me, so I changed dates to be persisted as longs instead of a string representation.

date pattern validation is must!

I suggest, we should handle anything specific to cassandra within that client only! However if you change "new Date()" for call on dateTypePattern and make generic changes, it should work!

I sugges take a look at
https://github.com/impetus-opensource/Kundera-Examples/tree/Kundera-Examples-2.0.5/src/test/java/com/impetus/kundera/examples/crud/datatypes
for further clarification on date type validation.

Looking forward to sync your changes and further classification to different pull request will definitly help us to classify changes.

Thanks again for all your contribution.
