Java Development Tools

I am working on JDeveloper 12.2.1.

I disabled future dates from being selected, but unfortunately the date picker component isn't allowing me to submit a current date. The current date is claimed to be after the valid range as such:

Here is my bean:

public class MstDmProjectsDateBean {

public MstDmProjectsDateBean() {

}

public java.util.Date getCurrentDate() {

    oracle.jbo.domain.Date cdate = new oracle.jbo.domain.Date(new java.sql.Date(new java.util.Date().getTime()));

    java.util.Date currDate = cdate.getValue();

    return currDate;

}

}

Here is the code for the af:inputDate component:

    \<af:inputDate value="#{bindings.CreationDate.inputValue}" label="#{viewcontrollerBundle.CREATION\_DATE}"

                  required="#{bindings.CreationDate.hints.mandatory}" columns="24"

                  shortDesc="#{bindings.CreationDate.hints.tooltip}" id="id1"

                  maxValue="#{pageFlowScope.MstDmProjectsDateBean.currentDate}">

      \<f:validator binding="#{bindings.CreationDate.validator}"/>

      \<af:convertDateTime pattern="#{bindings.CreationDate.format}"/>

    \</af:inputDate>

Any ideas on why this could occur?
