ok the goal of the project is to define a class called DateCS212 and use an array of DateCS212 objects to store a sequence of dates. The main program, Project2.java, will read the dates from a file and will instantiate a DateCS212 object for each date read from a line of the file and store that object into an array of DateCS212 objects. A slight modification is needed for sorting done in a separate class and sort the array of DateCS212 objects in ascending order by date. The program will take a single command-line argument which will be the name of a data file containing lines that are supposed to be in either MM/DD/YYYY format or MM-DD-YYYY format. The program should display its output using two text areas (JTextArea) on a JFrame.

Here is the code for Project2

im not sure what to put in the code for class DateSorting, but anyway when i run this a blank jframe screen pops up, im not sure where to put the two text files containing the dates one with valid dates and one with invalid dates either, please let me know what i can do to make this program run properly

please use [cod.e=language][/cod.e] (remove the ".")tags for your code sequence, it`s really necesary because your code is badly organized

Tackle the problem in stages.

If needs be create a separate program for just the dates. Another separate program for the text boxes. Then when you know both are doing their job combine them together.
