Relative dates doesn't work in MiniDateRangeItem: ret.getTime is not a function

[J-Pro]

Hello, dear developers!

I have a simple page: MiniDateRangeItem + a button. When I select range from Yesterday till Tomorrow and press this button, I'm getting an exception.
If I select ANY date using a calendar, not relative date - it works just fine.

1. SmartGWT 2.2(19.11.2010 nightly build) + Mozilla Firefox 3.6.12

3. for a client-side problem, the contents of the Developer Console (see FAQ for usage);

5. sample code.

VLayout mainVL = new VLayout();
final MiniDateRangeItem miniItem = new MiniDateRangeItem("miniitem");

DynamicForm dateForm = new DynamicForm();  
dateForm.setItems(miniItem);

Button getBtn = new Button("Refresh");

getBtn.addClickHandler(new ClickHandler()
{
    @Override
    public void onClick(ClickEvent event)
    {
        java.util.Date fromDate = miniItem.getFromDate();
        java.util.Date toDate = miniItem.getToDate();
    }
});


HLayout dateRangeHL = new HLayout();
dateRangeHL.setAlign(Alignment.RIGHT);
dateRangeHL.setHeight(20);
dateRangeHL.addMember(dateForm);
dateRangeHL.addMember(getBtn);

mainVL.addMember(dateRangeHL);
mainVL.setMargin(5);
mainVL.setWidth100();
mainVL.setHeight100();

mainVL.draw();

I am getting the same error for the DateRangeItem when I try to retrieve the TO date from the control. This happens in 3.1 but have never seen it in 3.0 or earlier versions.

This issue persists on the latest patched 4.0 build, Firefox 23.0.1, MacOSX 10.8.4.

[Isomorphic]

We checked and couldn't reproduce a problem with the originally posted code. However we did notice and fix a related issue that might have looked similar enough that you thought it was the same. The fix for this related issue will be in tomorrow's 4.0 and 4.1 builds.
