Hi Sergiu!
I played before with jodatime. It have some problems ... For example, I tried to use example script from plugin home page (it can be usefull in my situation) and this script doesn't working: #set($formatter = $xwiki.jodatime.getDateTimeFormatterForPattern('yyyy.MM.dd')) #set($myBirthday = $formatter.parseDateTime('2007.11.25')) #set($daysLeft = $myBirthday.minus($now.millis)) $daysLeft.getDayOfYear() days left till my birthday!
Also joda time is badly described - for all these reasons I used datetool.
Have you tried to use Velocity ComparisonDateTool? I'm able to use DateTool like you, but I don't know how to call methods from ComparisonDateTool. Are they available within Xwiki? Thanks!
As you said: reading attentively the documentation is required to get this working! Following http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/Scripting#HVelocitySpecifi... I modified xwiki.properties to include... http://velocity.apache.org/tools/releases/1.4/javadoc/org/apache/velocity/to... by adding... velocity.tools = comparisondatetool = org.apache.velocity.tools.generic.ComparisonDateTool It seems to me that the subclass is not available as the current date is printed if I use $comparisondatetool, but I'm not able yet to use its methods. (I've also checked that the required Velocity Tools library release is available ./WEB-INF/lib/velocity-tools-1.4.jar ) http://ebiotic.net/bin/ICT/Date Please, could you/anybody give an example? Thanks!
About query ... Better for me - XWQL, but all my tryings to use any dates in XWQL gives some errors (most of all - java errors in a translation from XWQL to hql ...). I am not a professional in a XWQL and HQL (I am not sure - this is my error or bug), and Ricardo gave working example of using HQL - for this reason I used ready query example.
If you can give working example of using dates in a XWQL - will be great! Also I tried examples from here: http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DesignArchive/XWikiQueryLanguageSpecific... (second script) - but give me error.
