CDateTime: How to set value [message #62728]

Hi all,

How do I set the default date (or time) when using a CDateTime control?

I'm using the CDateTime widget to set a time within a table (or grid).
Therefore I have a TimeCellEditor (extending CellEditor). Within the
doSetValue(Object value) method I'd like to do something like this:

@Override
protected void doSetValue(Object value) {
cdt.setValue(value.toString());
}

Where the given 'value' object has the same format as is set on the
CDateTime using cdt.setPattern("HH:mm:ss");

How can I set the time (or date for that matter) to a CDateTime widget?

Thanks in advance for any hint.

Christian

Hi Christian,

Currently CDateTime only takes a java.util.Date object to set its
selection: cdt.setSelection(java.util.Date).

However, since you can set the format explicitly, I have considered
adding a setSelection(String) method... not sure if it's worth the
additional api yet, or if there are other negative implications.
If this is something you're interested in, please open a bug and we'll
discuss it there.

cheers,
Jeremy
