When .setInputFormat("DMY") is set on my RelativeDateItem with a date format of dd.MMM.yyyy HH:mm, the Changed Handler only fires once upon selecting a date from the calendar picker. The calculated date field goes blank and typing into the text entry field does not fire the Changed Handler. When I remove setInputFormat("DMY"), the Changed Handler fires for each subsequent selection of a date from the calendar picker. It does not fire for minor changes to the time, such as changing the 00:00 to 00:01. How can I get the Changed Handler to fire on a keypress? Should I attach a KeyPressHandler too? This used to work great.
Another thing I noticed is before I started using setInputFormat("DMY"), I used to be able to call (Date) theStartDateItem.getValue() because getValue would return a LogicalDate; however, with setInputFormat("DMY"), getValue() returns a String instead.
Other than using instanceof or isAssignableFrom, can I guarantee the type that is returned from getValue()?
