Hi,
I'm actually looking to generate a string containing different
"parts", so I have to generate the string in code and bind the
method to a WOString in WOBuilder.
But I'm having issue using NSTimestampFormatter directly in code.
Searching for the correct way to use it, I found a post but it
doesn't seem to work...
Here's what I have:
public String stringToDisplay() {
NSTimestampFormatter dateTimeFormatter = new
NSTimestampFormatter( "%A %e %B %Y", new DateFormatSymbols
( Locale.FRENCH ) );
try {
return item.title() + dateTimeFormatter.parseObject
(item.dateAndTime().toString());
Why call parse when you want to format?
I'm not sure I should answer, I already feel stupid;)
return item.title() + dateTimeFormatter.format(item.dateAndTime
());
catch (IllegalArgumentException e) {
return item.title() + "Invalid Date/Time";
}
Thanks Chuck, it works like a charm:)
}
NSTimestampFormatter inherits from java.text.Format, check the
JavaDoc for that class too.
I will, to make sure I won't ask that twice;)
Thanks again:)
Chuck
And it gave me:
Main.java:144: unreported exception java.text.ParseException; must
be caught or declared to be thrown
So I know I have to caught/declare the exception, but I'm still
figuring how to do it:(
Anyhow I didn't found documentation on how to use
NSTimestampFormatter in code...
