Changes in 3.1

[steffenk]

Hi,

just wondering but after update the object structure in handlers of datepicker changed completely, so i had to adjust my scripts. What is the reason for, and which drastic changes are done too? Is there any doc or summary which structures changed too? It's hard to get this if you stop read the forum for a short while, and changes are not backward compatible.

The public API for the DatePicker didn't change, if I remember correctly. What are you referring to?

This is the code which worked well with 3.0 and stopped working with 3.1:

var menu = new Ext.menu.DateMenu({
	id:			'p' + element.dom.id,
	format:		format[index],
	value:		Date.parseDate(element.dom.value, format[index]),
	handler: 	function(picker, date){
		var relElement = Ext.getDom(picker.id.substring(1));
		relElement.value = date.format(format[index]);
		if (Ext.isFunction(relElement.onchange)) {
			relElement.onchange.call(relElement);
		}
	},
	listeners:	{
		beforeshow:	function(picker) {
			var relElement = Ext.getDom(picker.id.substring(1));
			if (relElement.value) {
				Ext.getCmp('p' + relElement.id).setValue(Date.parseDate(relElement.value, format[index]));
			}
		}
	}
});

Here is the new code that works now:

var menu = new Ext.menu.DateMenu({
	id:			'p' + element.dom.id,
	format:		format[index],
	value:		Date.parseDate(element.dom.value, format[index]),
	handler: 	function(picker, date){
		var relElement = Ext.getDom(picker.ownerCt.id.substring(1));
		relElement.value = date.format(format[index]);
		if (Ext.isFunction(relElement.onchange)) {
			relElement.onchange.call(relElement);
		}
	},
	listeners:	{
		beforeshow:	function(picker) {
			var relElement = Ext.getDom(picker.picker.ownerCt.id.substring(1));
			if (relElement.value) {
				picker.picker.setValue(Date.parseDate(relElement.value, format[index]));
			}
		}
	}
});

The change is the picker object in handler and beforeshow listener.
