ObjectUtil.dateCompare() function does account for the time portion of the supplied dates.
According to the scenario you describe ObjectUtil.dateCompare() function never sees the time portion of date_A nor date_B. The DateField.stringToDate() method only evaluates the YYYY-MM-DD portion of the supplied date string and ignores/strips off the time portion of the date.

The date format is YYYY-MM-DD HH:NN:SS. I'm converting the dates, in a string format, to a Date objects like so: DateField.stringToDate(date_A 'YYYY-MM-DD HH:NN:SS'); DateField.stringToDate(date_B 'YYYY-MM-DD HH:NN:SS'); Then comparing the dates like this: ObjectUtil.dateCompare(date_A, date_B) It always returns 0 when the date portion of the two date objects are equal, but the times are different. Does the ObjectUtil.dateCompare function not account for the time? -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Comparing-Dates%3A-ObjectUtil.dateCompare-not-working- tp26378917p26378917.html Sent from the FlexCoders mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
