--------------------------------------
Confirmed still an issue in Apache Flex 4.9.1
> Setting selectedDate in closed handler of DateField doesn't update
> selectedDate
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLEX-23464
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-23464
> Project: Apache Flex
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: mx: DateField
> Affects Versions: Adobe Flex SDK 3.5 (Release)
> Environment: Affected OS(s): Windows
> Affected OS(s): Windows XP
> Browser: Internet Explorer 7.x
> Language Found: English
> Reporter: Adobe JIRA
>
> Steps to reproduce:
> 1. Run attached example (or create your own example, being: datefield with
> closed handler, inside the closed handler overwrite the selectedDate of the
> datefield).
> 2. Click the DateField and select a date (when using attached example:
> selected date not being today)
> 3. See that the SelectedDate from the closed handler doesn't get reflected
>
> Actual Results:
> The date set in the closed handler is not set to the date field. The date
> from the handler is only used when the date chooser is opened and no date is
> selected (click outside the date chooser).
> The handler is called both times.
>
> Expected Results:
> The date set in the closed handler to be reflected in the date field.
>
> Workaround (if any):
> Add a "validateNow()" call after setting the selectedDate:
> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml";>
>
> <mx:Script>
> <![CDATA[
> private function myDateClosed(evt:Event):void {
> trace('myDateClosed(event)');
> myDate.selectedDate = new Date();
> myDate.validateNow(); /* workaround */
> }
> ]]
> >
> </mx:Script>
>
> <mx:ApplicationControlBar dock="true">
> <mx:Label id="sdkVer" initialize="sdkVer.text =
> mx_internal::VERSION;" />
> </mx:ApplicationControlBar>
>
> <mx:DateField id="myDate" close="myDateClosed(event);" />
>
> </mx:Application>
