DateChooser Year Picker - setting years

[cjustice]

I'm using SmartGWT Pro 2.3 and the DateChooser. When you click on the years, you get a list of years from now to 20 years ago (2010 to 1990).

Is there a way to get this to let you pick from now to years from now (2010 to 2030)?

Thanks,
Chris

Yes - setStartDate() and setEndDate() to dates at the endpoints of that range.

Thanks, but there are no methods setStartDate() and setEndDate() on DateChooser. They do exist on DateItem, but not DateChooser.

Is there another way to accomplish this?

Ah, sorry, on a DateChooser it's setAttribute("startYear", 2010), setAttribute("endYear", 2030), we'll add dedicated getter/setters.

Not to be a pain, but setAttribute() isn't visible from the DateChooser. The setAttribute() methods are protected in BaseWidget and not explicitly exposed in DateChooser.

Dedicated getters/setters for this would be great. In the meantime, is there a way to do this via JSNI?

Thanks!

Dedicated getters/setters should appear in the next nightly build. Otherwise, use JSNI to set the startYear/endYear properties on the JavaScriptObject available from getJSObj().

For future reference, you can use this pattern if you need to call setAttribute.

DateChooser dateChooser = new DateChooser() { 
{
   setAttribute("startYear", 2010);
}};
