SparkSql does not support date format

I tried using a date file with sparkSql but its not working

As in javaSparkSqlExample example

I tried to add datecoloumn dob

In Person class, I added

setter and getter for dob as Date

when trying to execute

SELECT dob,name,age,count(*) as totalCount FROM Person WHERE dob >= '1995-01-01' AND age <= '2014-02-01';

      

        
        
        
      

    

Also tried to use also in query instead of <= and> = also
