Ah, yes, that would be the more accurate way to explain it. I have an NSDatePicker in my NSPredicateEditor and no funny business is going on with conversions. It's just the simple default, setup-in-IB usage.

So I guess the question is better put: is there any guarantee about the time of an NSDatePicker in an NSPredicateEditor?

I created a quick test of an NSDatePicker outside an NSPredicateEditor and its default time seems to be 8:00:00.

I'm a bit confused by your post. NSPredicateEditor doesn't compare any dates, it just creates NSPredicates. Maybe you're saying that if you have a NSDatePicker in your NSPredicateEditor, that it creates a predicate with a date set to 13:41:40. If that's the case, then it probably has more to do with the NSDatePicker than predicates. Unless you're converting the predicate to a string, which introduces more complications. NSPredicateEditor tends to just call objectValue on the gui component, so try calling that yourself on your NSDatePicker and see what happens.

Hi all,

In my application, users have the option of comparing to a
date in an NSPredicateEditor. For the NSDates it is
comparing against, only the date is important; time
doesn't matter.

The interesting thing I found about NSPredicateEditor is
the NSTimeInterval it compares my NSDates to has the time
set to 13:41:40.  That means my NSDates with the default
12:00:00 time don't match an "is" predicate.
It's not a big deal because I can just change my
NSDate's time to 13:41:40 to fix the problem.

But what I'm wondering is if this is guaranteed to
always be true. I couldn't find it anywhere in the
documentation.

Thanks,
Josh
