In case anyone is interested, here is a little utility I just wrote (and
quickly tested so any feedback is fine):


/**

 * difference between d2.getTime() - d1.getTime() for display purposes.

Subject: [OT] Display Time was RE: How to use <bean:write format/formatKet>

          I need to display the time difference between two dates.  I may be
making this harder than it seems.

          My first instinct is to do long timeDiff = date2.getTime() -
date1.getTime()  but then how do I get this

          millisecond format to display as: "dddaysHHhrsmmminsssecSSms"
meaning "2days12hrs13min23sec15ms",

          very confusing I think (how do I set the format string, I mean do
I backslash "dd\daysHH\hrs" etc? how will

          the formatter know that the 's' in "days" doesn't mean to display
seconds?

 

          Any suggestions would be great!

 

          TIA

hi,

u can use <bean:write  to format dates and numbers.

for ex. u have action form 

private Date date1;

 

if u want to format that using bean:write

<bean:write name="form" property="date1" format="MM/dd/yyyy"/>

this renders the date using that format(simpledate format)

if u want this format from application resouces , use formatkey which will
get the value from the resources.

Subject: How to use 

 

Hi ,
Can anybody let me know how to use "bean:write" for formatting the text.

What is the difference between format / formaKey in Bean:write attributes ?

What are all the valid message format texts that I can use in
ApplicationResourse.
