Re: json date
The JSON spec actually has no way of representing a date. There are several possible methods (and hacks) that allow you to ship dates over JSON (though none of them are really perfect). I would personally recommend sending dates as UTC numbers, since that way you don't have to hack the JSON encoding / decoding process to get it to work, the disadvantage being you loose readability of your data (as plain text). Hope that helps a bit. //J sutarsa giri wrote: > dear all, > I'm trying to use php as beckend for my gwt application( actually I'm > not really confortable with gwt+json, but I don't have choice ), > There is a thing that make me confuse. there is > JSONString,JSONNumber,JSONObject,JSONBoolean, but why there is no built > in JSONDate? > > did anyone know why?, i'm also try to googling about json date. but it's > lead me to another confusion. any pointer woud be helped > > > thx and regards, > Gede sutarsa > > > --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Web Toolkit" group.

Re: json date
You can use sql99 standard (-MM-DD hh:mm:ss) to format date as string in php and write your parser which will convert sql99 date String into Date object in GWT. GWT implements Date object but without support for class GregorianCalendar, so your date parser should use some depricated methods. Best regards.

If the web-application is accessed internationally I think the format used with iCalendar (AFAIR) or XML is better: -MM-ddTHH:mm:ssZ Otherwise there might be confusions what 03:00:00 means, the timezone of the server or the timezone of the client. Or you define that all times have to be in UTC and you convert them accordingly on server- and client-side.

Re: json date
The answer depends on whether you want the server to format the date or the client to. Send it as a JSONstring for the 1st case and as a JSONNumber for the latter. Send it as JSONNumber if you want the client (GWT) to be able to render the date as its local time.

Re: json date
I wrote a parser to convert a JSON date string in UTC (e.g. right now its '2009-02-26 18:38:03.0') into a java.sql.Timestamp so it can be formatted in the user's own timezone. The parser is here: http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=tools/gwtjsonrpc.git;a=blob;f=src/main/java/com/google/gwtjsonrpc/client/JavaSqlTimestamp_JsonSerializer.java;hb=HEAD Once its in a java.sql.Timestamp it can be formatted in the browser's preferred timezone with the GWT DateTimeFormat class. The downside to this approach is the dates from the server are all in UTC, and the dates in the browser are in the browser's timezone. If the date is meant to record when someone performed some action, and that person is in another timezone, it may be a loss of information. Knowing that something was written in my timezone at "6 pm" doesn't tell me that perhaps the author is actually in Europe and it was actually more like 4 am for them. At such times, mistakes are much more likely (the author is probably not as alert) and extra review might be needed.
