TimeField.setFormat() does not work

[andreiastra]

Hi,

I'm trying to change the time format for a Time Field by calling setFormat(). It does not do anything.

Next, I tried to use



timeField.setPropertyEditor(propertyEditor);


It does change the format in the field, but the values in the pull-down list do not change the format, see picture:

21619

Should I call some kind of refresh function to make the format change visible?

It there any way to fix the problem?

Thank you,

Andrei

public

class TimeFieldTest implements EntryPoint {


staticintcount = 0;




publicvoid onModuleLoad() {

Viewport viewport = new Viewport();

viewport.setLayout(new BorderLayout());







HorizontalPanel horizontalPanel = new HorizontalPanel();

horizontalPanel.setSpacing(10);

final TimeField timeField = new TimeField();
timeField.setTriggerAction(TriggerAction.ALL);







horizontalPanel.add(timeField);

Button button = new Button("Ok");

horizontalPanel.add(button);







button.addListener(Events.OnClick, new Listener<ButtonEvent>() {

publicvoid handleEvent(ButtonEvent be) {

final DateTimeFormat dateTimeFormat = count++ % 2 == 0 ? DateTimeFormat
.getMediumTimeFormat() : DateTimeFormat.getShortTimeFormat();







ListModelPropertyEditor<Time> propertyEditor = new ListModelPropertyEditor<Time>() {

@Override

public Time convertStringValue(String value) {
returnnew Time(dateTimeFormat.parse(value));
}







@Override

public String getStringValue(Time time) {

return dateTimeFormat.format(time.getDate());
}







};




timeField.setPropertyEditor(propertyEditor);

// timeField.setFormat(dateTimeFormat);

}
});







viewport.add(horizontalPanel, new BorderLayoutData(LayoutRegion.CENTER));

RootPanel.get().add(viewport);

}
}

I just tested setFormat against GXT 2.2 beta 1 and GXT 2.1.3 and it works without any problems

Hi Sven,

I ran the above example it with GXT 2.1.0. I tried it also with GXT 2.2.0. Again,



handleEvent(ButtonEvent be) {
...
timeField.setFormat(dateTimeFormat);
}


didn't do anything.

Can you please try my example? Am I missing something here?

Tested it on FF and IE8.

You cannot change the format after rendering, You need to create a new timefield
