Re: [flexcoders] AMFPHP and date/datetime data from MySQL
The Flex documentation says there is a DateFormatter class. Have you tried using that?

Re: [flexcoders] AMFPHP and date/datetime data from MySQL
Sajid,
Still under a tight deadline atm, but this is what i have working for
me so far:
To write it to DB:
public function create($obj)
{
$query = INSERT INTO Event
(
DateStart,
)
VALUES
(
'.date(Y-m-d,mysql_real_escape_string($obj[DateStart])/1000).'
To read it back out - the query:
public function getOne($id)
{
$query = SELECT
date_format(DateStart, '%a %b %e %T GMT+1000 %Y') as DateStart,
Which will format the string exactly as new Date() outputs for me
(couldn't quickly find a way to get the timezone + offset so it's hard
coded).
Then in my VO which is sent back via amf:
?php
class EventsVO {
var $_explicitType=vo.EventsVO;
public $_DateStart;
public function EventsVO()
{
}
public function mapObject($data)
{
$this-_DateStart = $data[DateStart];
}
}
?
Take note that I have prepended the VO DateStart field with an
underscore, the reason for this is apparent in the .as VO below:
package com.aom.mfl.vo
{
[RemoteClass(alias=vo.EventsVO)]
[Bindable]
public class SEvent
{
public var _DateStart:String;
public function SEvent()
{
}
public function set DateStart(val:Date):void{
_DateStart = val.toString();
}
public function get DateStart():Date{
if (_DateStart == null){
return new Date();
}
return new Date(_DateStart);
}
}
}
Effectively the remoting will set the string of _DateStart but all
other code throughout my flex app will refer to DateStart which
returns the true Date object, you could create another private field
to hold the Date object instead of parsing the string version on each
request.
Cheers,
Nik
[flexcoders] AMFPHP and date/datetime data from MySQL
Hi All, Could anyone enlighten me as to how i should send and retrieve date and datetime data for inserting into MySQL via amfphp (1.9) with value objects ? If i edit the data directly in MySQL and then retrieve a vo with a Date datatype i get the following message: TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert 1970-01-01 to Date. So, I need to format the date in someway so that flex can deserialize it properly. Any insight would be greatly appreciated (am coming from .net land so new to both PHP and as3). Cheers, Nik
Re: [flexcoders] AMFPHP and date/datetime data from MySQL
Adobe has some date parsing methods in the as3corelib library -- http://code.google.com/p/as3corelib/ I suppose it depends on the format your storing the date, the way I've been handling it is using as3 to parse the date string that AMF returns. Not sure if this is the best way, I'd be open to a better one! Hope that helps, I can attempt to help more if it doesn't.
