RE: [flexcoders] date formating
Roger,
Use the following function.
public function
gridDateFormatter(item:Object,column:DataGridColumn):String
{
var f:DateFormatter = new DateFormatter();
f.formatString = "DD-MMM-";
return f.format(item[column.dataField]);
}
Then on your grid column set the labelfucntion like:
Change the format string to match the format you need.
B.

Hello,
I have a date field in a grid.
what is the correct syntax to get it to display MM/DD/ right now it
displays as Wed Jan 30 00:00:00 GMT
I have as my date
format and I added the syntax to the datafield
dataField="{df.format(entrydate)}"
But this just gives me an error.
I found how to do it on a label but I need it formated in a grid
column..
Thank you
Roger

RE: [flexcoders] Date formating application wide
Hi, Though this is the quickest possible way, but this kind of hacks might not be supported in future, as Dirk also said. But this indeed shows the power of prototype :) -abdul -Original Message- From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dirk Eismann Sent: Friday, May 13, 2005 6:14 PM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [flexcoders] Date formating application wide Here's an example how to achieve this taken from a current project. First, the default formats are setup by using the mx.formatters.DateBase class.

RE: [flexcoders] Date formating application wide
You can achieve this, if it's not already there. You can subclass DateField
and DateChooser component and add this functionality.
Following is quick and dirty example to :
##ExtendedDateFieldExample.mxml##
http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml";
xmlns:local="*">
##DateFieldEx.as##
import mx.controls.DateField;
class DateFieldEx extends DateField
{
//default German month names...
private static var defaultMonthNames =
["Januar","Februar","März","April","Mai","Juni","Juli","August","September",
"Oktober","November","Dezember"]
public function init():Void
{
super.init();
monthNames = defaultMonthNames;
}
}
On similar lines you can think...
Hope that helps..

Subject: [flexcoders] Date formating application wide
Hi there,
Is there a way to set default values other than English formating so
each component uses it instead of setting formatters everywhere.
Example, If I have several DateFields and DateChoosers I want to be
able just to set in the main Application weekday names (or month
names) and those components use it as default.
If I set automaticly it should use my definitions of
dayNames and monthNames without setting it directly in the component.
Any Idea how I can achieve this?
Thanks,
João Fernandes
