Assume I have following parser with joda-time lib for android
DateTimeFormat.forPattern("dd.MM.yyyy").parseDateTime(maybeDate);
My aim is to filter input in some editText with TextWatcher and try to parse input and check if it is a Date.
The following time passes this pattern, despite there are 4 "y" letters!
06.12.1 (while I tried to put 06.12.1988)
P.S. appendYear(4,4) for formatter also fails.
