Custom Date Format

[rukeller]

Hello,

I would like to use a custom date format in my ListGrid. Unfortunately I cannot use the date formats provided in DateDisplayFormat, as the dates in my country (Germany) are written with dots, not with slashes: e.g. 24.03.2009 instead of 24/03/2009

Also, I have a case where I only want so display month and year of a date and not the day: e.g. 03/2009

Is it possible to define custom date formats with SmartGWT?

Your help is very much appreciated.

Thanks,
Rudiger

You can use a cell formatter and format the date in the desired format using GWT's DateFormat class.

Is is also possible to use a custom date format in a DynamicForm? As far as I can tell, there is no way to specify a cell formatter for a FormItem.

No cell Formatter for a DateItem :-(

Look at the global input and output formatter methods in DataUtil.
