Reading the documentation of the XWiki JoDaTime module (XWiki services based) I feel it holds a lot of value next to $datetool and $datecomparisontool (velocity based)
But I fail to understand the documentation http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Joda+Time+Plugin As the examples are quite easy to read they did not clarify me enough to just use date-values stored in XWiki XObjectProperties of type date What default format does the property deliver; Should I use $doc.Display(date-property)? , $doc.Display(date-property).value() or $object.getProperty(date-property) What I understand from JoDaTime is that it is great to render dates in 'view' mode in the internationally localized format (Dutch Notation vs English Notation), but when I switch to 'edit' mode how can I have a DateWidget understands that format So my simple question was to calculate the age based on a date-property in a wiki object and Now?

But it is still solving some problems to me here! That pending migration is still a pending migration/upgrade... Some notes on this issue in comments here... http://atriumkm.idisantiago.es/bin/ICT/PureDate I'll give it a try ASAP! Cheers! > Thanks > -Vincent > > > > > Any help will be welcome!
