I'm using Applescript to extract data from a Web Service developed using WebObjects. The format of the response is as follows:

{gid:{primarykeys:{1}, entityname:"folderList"}, websafefoldername:"folderName", datestamp:«data isot323030362D30382D31315432333A30303A30305A», foldername:"Folder Name", folderid:1}

if I add the line:

	get datestamp of theRecord as date

I get the correct result:

date "Friday, August 11, 2006 23:00:00"

However, I can't find the means to convert an Applescript date into the ISO format which the Web Service appears to need to write records back.
I have tried sending the "datestamp" variable straight back and I get an error:


"http://localhost:55555/cgi-bin/WebObjects/picturesWebService.woa/ ws/managePictures got an error: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: com.webobjects.foundation.NSValidation$ValidationException: Error encountered converting value of class java.util.GregorianCalendar to type specified in attribute 'dateStamp' of entity 'folderList'. Conversion exception is : null"

While this may be a problem in the WebObjects application, which I wouldn't expect this list to answer, for now the question is how to handle the date format in Applescript so I can be confident about the data I am sending.
Does anyone have experience of handling dates in this format?


Thanks in advance,
Gordon.

hi Gordon,

Use the following:

get datestamp of theRecord as string
