Re: Printing current date/time header

If all you need is a JS version, you might be able to just call 
toLocaleDateString() for now.

Hi Greg and Alex,

The reason is related with string format in DateFormatter, setter is not 
implemented and format function is not implemented either.

The setter for formatString is commented. I can create PR for the change but it 
is not simple. It requires to initialization of resource manager 
"SharedResoources" and I guess it inherits from the class Formatter which is 
also commented.

The function :

    public function set formatString(value:String):void
    {
        /* formatStringOverride = value;

        _formatString = value != null ?
                        value :
                        resourceManager.getString(
                            "SharedResources", "dateFormat"); */
    }

Simply can solve if change to :

    public function set formatString(value:String):void
    {


        _formatString = value;

        /* formatStringOverride = value;

        _formatString = value != null ?
                        value :
                        resourceManager.getString(
                            "SharedResources", "dateFormat"); */
    }


But the format function needs more work.

Thanks,
Serkan

Alex, I'm guessing it is DateFormatter. I think that just returns empty string, 
or at least it did a few weeks ago when I tried to use it.

Hi,

Is there an example of showing current date time on page, as my version 
converted from flex is not working.

Thanks
Serkan,

*****************************************
My code for royale (not complete source) :

            public function showTime():void {
                var currentTime:Date = new Date();
                var timeFormat:DateFormatter = new DateFormatter();
                timeFormat.formatString = "DD/MM/YYYY JJ:NN:SS"
                time = timeFormat.format(currentTime);
                ticker = new Timer(1,1);
                ticker.addEventListener(Timer.TIMER, onTimerComplete);
                ticker.start();
            }

            public function onCreationComplete():void {
                showTime();
            }

            public function onTimerComplete(event:Timer):void {
                showTime();
            }

to show :

<s:Button id="button1" width="200" label="Time : {time}" 
click="button_clickHandler(event)"/>



*****************************************
Flex version which is working (not complete source):

            public function showTime():void {
                var currentTime:Date = new Date();
                var timeFormat:DateFormatter = new DateFormatter();
                timeFormat.formatString = "DD/MM/YYYY JJ:NN:SS"
                time = timeFormat.format(currentTime);
                ticker = new Timer(1,1);
                ticker.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER_COMPLETE, 
onTimerComplete);
                ticker.start();
            }

            public function onCreationComplete():void {
                showTime();
            }

            public function onTimerComplete(event:TimerEvent):void {
                showTime();
            }


to show :

<s:Label y="-18" right="90" fontWeight="bold" text="{time}"/>
