Hello there,

I think I'm the only active or the only user of XWT with a lot of questions!
My question is what do I need and how is it done.
How do I set the date of a datetime widget and how do I set the selection of a combo widget?
Can I use java date for datetime? What is needed for the Combo?

Databinding for the text widgets works fine.

Xwt code:

<Composite.layout>
		<FillLayout/>
	</Composite.layout>
	<p1:Form background="COLOR_WHITE">
		<p1:Form.body>
			<p1:Form.body.layout>
				<GridLayout numColumns="2"/>
			</p1:Form.body.layout>
			<Label text="Datum:" background="COLOR_WHITE" />
			<DateTime x:Style="BORDER | DROP_DOWN">
			</DateTime>		
			<Label  text="Betrag (in Euro):" background="COLOR_WHITE" />
			<Text x:Style="BORDER" text="{Binding path=amount}" >
				<Text.layoutData>
					<GridData horizontalAlignment="FILL" grabExcessHorizontalSpace="true"/>
				</Text.layoutData>
			</Text>
			<Label text="Steuerschlüssel:" background="COLOR_WHITE"/>
			<ComboViewer x:Style="READ_ONLY" >
				<ComboViewer.combo>
					<ComboViewer.combo.items>
						<p2:String>Vorsteuer 7%</p2:String>
						<p2:String>Vorsteuer 19%</p2:String>
						<p2:String>Umsatzsteuer 7%</p2:String>
						<p2:String>Umsatzsteuer 19%</p2:String>
					</ComboViewer.combo.items>
				</ComboViewer.combo>
			</ComboViewer>
			<Label name="belegtext" text="Belegtext:" background="COLOR_WHITE"/>
			<Text x:Style="BORDER | MULTI" text="{Binding path=belegtext}">
				<Text.layoutData>
					<GridData horizontalAlignment="FILL" grabExcessHorizontalSpace="true" heightHint="120"/>
				</Text.layoutData>
			</Text>
		</p1:Form.body>
	</p1:Form>
</Composite>

Greetings Sascha.

Hi Erdal,

first thank you for your answer. ATM I just use the @UI annotation for the Combo and DateTime and in this case it works fine.Let's see if Yves knows the right way.

2. I get confused everytime with XWT and XWTForms. Sometimes I just forget that both exist...
