Hi! I've been these last days trying to regain access to an ancient issue while dealing with dates. Searching Jira I found this... http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-5610?jql=text%20~%20%22datetool%22 ... and this at XWiki Platforma site... http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/SRD/datetool To the best of my understanding ComparisonDateTool is implemented and accessible through $datetool velocity variable. But I'm not able to get it working.

Wow XE 2.4 is really old... I don’t remember if the $datetool binding was available and it’s possible that it wasn’t. FYI it’s located in a java class in the xwiki-velocity*.jar file. Thanks -Vincent

Any help will be welcome! Thank!

Reading the documentation of the XWiki JoDaTime module (XWiki services based) I feel it holds a lot of value next to $datetool and $datecomparisontool (velocity based) But I fail to understand the documentation http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Joda+Time+Plugin As the examples are quite easy to read they did not clarify me enough to just use date-values stored in XWiki XObjectProperties of type date What default format does the property deliver; Should I use $doc.Display(date-property)? , $doc.Display(date-property).value() or $object.getProperty(date-property) What I understand from JoDaTime is that it is great to render dates in 'view' mode in the internationally localized format (Dutch Notation vs English Notation), but when I switch to 'edit' mode how can I have a DateWidget understands that format So my simple question was to calculate the age based on a date-property in a wiki object and Now?

Yes, XE 2.4 is really a paleoXWiki installation! But it is still solving some problems to me here! That pending migration is still a pending migration/upgrade... Some notes on this issue in comments here... http://atriumkm.idisantiago.es/bin/ICT/PureDate I'll give it a try ASAP! Cheers!

I'm afraid I don't understand this. I see that velocity-tools-1.4.jar included with XE 2.4 includes DateComparisonTools, as it does velocity-tools-2.0.jar included with XE 7.3. I've replaced both in XE 2.4 with those in XE 7.3 and restarted the container to no avail. DateTool methods work, but ComparisonDateTool don't. http://atriumkm.idisantiago.es/bin/ICT/PureDate I think I don't understand what binding does mean and how could I implement it. Have I any option of getting these methods working in my legacy XE 2.4 installation? I do need to do some date comparisons to show several pieces of information! Thanks for your help!

FYI it’s located in a java class in the xwiki-velocity*.jar file.

Thanks -Vincent
