Using the Ruby Date class in Photon

Is it possible to use the Ruby Date class in the Photon strategy studio?
normally one would just write

require 'date'

when using Ruby but it does not seem to work in Photon

thanks

You should be able to use Ruby dates to your heart's content. However, for artifacts that need to be sent from your strategy (like orders, e.g.) or on artifacts that are sent to your strategy (like market data), the object type has to be a Java Date.
