org.languagetool.rules.DateRangeChecker

public class DateRangeChecker
extends RuleFilter

Checks whether the date range is valid, i.e., that the starting date happens before the end date. The check is trivial: simply check whether the first integer number is smaller than the second, so this can be implemented for any language. The parameters used in the XML file are called 'x' and 'y'.
