Date and Date Time Columns

Visual LANSA Framework

Date and Date/Time Columns

Note that all existing relationship handlers need to be recompiled and redeployed because of this enhancement.

Designers can now add Date and Date/Time values to the standard shipped instance list as additional columns:

You can specify the display format and, if required, a UTC time conversion:

The display format and a UTC time conversion are selected from drop-down lists:

Output formats map to all the formats available for the AsDisplayString intrinsic function for both RDMLX Date and DateTime fields.

The Date and Date/Time additional columns can be added and updated from RDML and RDMLX filters and command handlers.

There is a required input format for Date and Date/Time values. See Adding Additional Columns to Instance Lists and Columns for Instance Lists for full details.

There is also a new subroutine, SETDCOL, available for relationship handler functions. See Sample Relationship Handler Function

Please read the Required User Action section in the documentation shipped with this EPC.
