Hi xwiki users,
I have a problem setting an object date property from a String.
The code I am doing is :
($startDate is a string I got from the request)
#if($context.getUser()!="XWiki.XWikiGuest")
#set($releaseDoc=$xwiki.getDocument("Project.${releaseid}"))
#set($releaseObj=$releaseDoc.getObject("XWiki.ReleaseClass"))
$releaseObj.set("startDate",$datetool.toDate($startDate))
$releaseDoc.save()
${releaseObj.startDate}
#else
NoRight
#end
This piece of code is placed on the Skin Object and I call it using Ajax
(I use an InPlaceEditor from scriptaculous)
What I got in result from this is NoRight if I am not connected but a
wiki page with this template does not exist if i am logged in. I don't
understand what is missing.
I tried using Groovy, but I got the Groovy code in response, it was not
executed.
If someone can point out my error, I am all heard.
Thanks in advance
Jean

Ok,
I ended up successfully setting my date parameter from a string
combining velocity and groovy. Here is what I've done :
Created a Groovy class on a page named Project.DateParser :
/* Groovy Class : Date parser#* */
import java.text.DateFormat;
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
import java.util.Date;
class DateParser {
Date parse(toParse) {
def formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("dd/MM/yyyy");
return formatter.parse(toParse);
}
}
/* *# */
Then I called it from my velocity script :
##Create an instance of my parser
#set($dateParser = $xwiki.parseGroovyFromPage("Project.DateParser"))
##Set the value from this parser calling its parse method
$releaseObj.set("startDate",$dateParser.parse($date))
##Save the doc
$releaseDoc.save()
##Write the saved property
${releaseObj.startDate}
Now it works really fine. I can edit my date parameters with Ajax and
that's pretty cool stuff.

I did the same thing for a similar problem. You can also keep a copy of the
dateformatter on the groovy class, instead of recreating it each time... and
you might also want to consider setting the timezone to something
consistent, like GMT.
import org.apache.commons.io.FileUtils
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat
import java.util.TimeZone
import java.lang.Double
class My_Groovy {
def xwiki
def context
def SimpleDateFormat df
void setObjects(param_xwiki, param_context) {
this.xwiki = param_xwiki
this.context = param_context
this.df = new SimpleDateFormat('HH:mm:ss.SSS');
this.df.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getTimeZone("GMT"));
}
...
this.df.format( ... )
...
}
It's too bad there's no way of doing "new SimpleDateFormat" directly out
of
velocity (or any kind of object creation). Then there would be no need for
the extra complication, and memory footprint, and loading times, all for a
very trivial use of groovy. It'd be nice if there was a generic way to
dynamically load a class out of velocity, call "new" on it, etc. This might
even obviate the need for many of Xwiki's simpler Java plugins that just
provide access to an existing Java class as $class, and then let you call
static methods on that as $class.myStaticMethod().
