In my "update" screen (in flex), I'm getting the actual date value from the model and showing it to the user. If the user changes this date value in the screen, no problem; it's working. But if he doesn't touch this date field then the value of it is null as far as I can see while debugging.
In my update screen this is the part I define the datefield.
1 | < mx:DateField id="endingDateDatefield" text="{formatDate(myModel.endingDate)}" |
2 | formatString="{FORMAT_STRING}" width="50%" height="25"/> |
Notice that formatDate() returns String.
The datefield is displayed correctly but when I try to save the new model I saw no value in debug. "parentPanel.endingDateDatefield.selectedDate" is null.
So I changed my code to:
1 | < mx:DateField id="endingDateDatefield" selectedDate="{myModel.endingDate}" |
2 | formatString="{FORMAT_STRING}" width="50%" height="25"/> |
Now I set the selectedDate field instead of text in DateField component which fixes the issue.
