Just a short addition to this thread,
I'm trying to use this formatter (to get a valid date declaration for
an RSS (RDF) feed):
NSTimestampFormatter dateTimeFormatter = new NSTimestampFormatter( "%
Y-%m-%dT%H:%M%z", new DateFormatSymbols( Locale.ENGLISH ) );
But I get an exception because the %z
In fact the NSTimestamp is GMT, when I print it I get:
2005-10-25 08:28:05 Etc/GMT
Reading the documentation, it says it would default to the local
system timezone, but the null pointer exception make me think it
doesn't.
Can I set a default timezone for the application using:
setDefaultTimeZone in the application constructor? if it's the
correct way to handle that...
Thanks
Xavier
I'm downloading it right now:)
Thanks Hugi
If you want to program WO, you really do want to know Java well.
Take a day off and read through Bruce Eckel's "Thinking in Java".
It's free and your life will be a simpler and happier one :-).

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 ) );
return item.title() + dateTimeFormatter.parseObject
(item.dateAndTime().toString());
}
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...
