ExpiryDateText
class ExpiryDateText : TextField

Added in version 7.2.0

A specialized text field for capturing expiry dates. This predefined field type is optimized for recognizing date formats commonly found on product labels, packaging, and documents.

The field can be configured with specific date formats using LabelDateFormat to ensure proper parsing of various date representations (MM/dd/yyyy, dd.MM.yyyy, etc.).

Use the builder pattern with ExpiryDateTextBuilder for convenient configuration.
