Hello Martin
I just updated to rev 19730 and got yet another warning message. However, I
looked at the source (as Tobi, our local Qooxdoo-Yedi suggested) and found
the problem:
qx.ui.from.DateField.setValue() expects a Date object as argument and not
String (as the API says).
I suggest that the warning message in qx.ui.from.DateField could be
improved:
setValue : function(value)
{
if (qx.lang.Type.isString(value))
{
qx.log.Logger.deprecatedMethodWarning(
arguments.callee, "Value property is used for setting
dates now."
);
return;
}
Perhaps something along the line "wrong data type for setValue" ?
Lesson learnt: if using the svn-version of Qooxdoo, also use a local
(matching) API-viewer and Demobrowser and NOT the online
official (stable) version.
Thanks for help anyway.
Cheers,
Fritz
