How to identify date string and date

In CF10, how can I determine if an object is a date string or a date object?

myDateString = '2015-05-05';
myDateObject = createDate( 2015, 5, 5 );

I tried isDate (), isValid ('date'), isValid ('string'). All these functions give the same answers ("YES") for both variables. However, it lsParseDateTime( myDateObject )throws an error, so I need to check the type of the object before I run the lsParseDateTime function on it.

ps. parseDateTime( myDateObject )works fine, which makes me wonder if lsParseDateTime should throw an error. In Railo 4.2, it lsParseDateTime( myDateObject )works fine.

You can use the fact that all CFML objects are also Java objects and use Java methods:

myDateString = '2015-05-05';    
myDateObject = createDate( 2015, 5, 5 );    

writeOutput(myDateString.getClass().getName());    
writeOutput("<br>");    
writeOutput(myDateObject.getClass().getName());

:

java.lang.String
coldfusion.runtime.OleDateTime

isInstanceOf (obj, "typeName" ) coldfusion.runtime.OleDateTime java.util.Date ():

   isInstanceOf(myDateObject, "coldfusion.runtime.OleDateTime");    
   isInstanceOf(myDateObject, "java.util.Date");
