How to perform validation on date field

[Anonymous]

Hello there! 

I have a Date field/Column in input and I want to apply validation operation like (Is_valid) to check whether the input date is in particular format (lets say dd-mm-yyyy) or not, if not I want to reject that record.

Please let me know/suggest me how can I perform this is_valid on date field

Thanks in advance

Have a look to TalendDate.parseDate() method

Actually am a beginner in talend and I tried the various date function's like TalendDate.formatDate, TalendDate.parseDate, TalendDate.isDate. 

but didn't get solution.

Could you please help me with an example or solution for below case.

My input filed 't_date' is in format 'dd-MM-yyyy', here I want to reject the records if it is not in the specified format else it should be proceed further.

By the way thanks for your reply!

Did you try:
TalendDate.isDate(row1.t_date, "dd-MM-yyyy")
This suppose t_date is a String.
