Date field should be different

Question

Hi
Iam creating an application in web dynpro.In that labels "From Date" and "To Date" labels are present.
In that i created Context of type "Date".
I written code like this.
Date date=new Date();
        java.sql.Date today=new java.sql.Date(date.getTime());
        wdContext.currentTimelogElement().setFromDate(today);
        wdContext.currentTimelogElement().setToDate(today);
While writing like this,its showing todayDate as "From Date " and "To Date ".
I want both the Dates should be different.
Suppose "From Date-06/02/2009"  "To Date---10/02/2009" or
               From Date-01/02/2009"  "To Date---06/02/2009"
For that what are the modifications i have to do in the Code.

Hi Sushma,
Create 2 Date instances for 'FromDate' & 'ToDate' with required values & set them.
Example:
java.sql.Date fromDate = new java.sql.Date(109, 1, 1); // This is 1st Feb, 2009
wdContext.currentTimelogElement().setFromDate(fromDate);
Similarly, java.sql.Date toDate = new java.sql.Date(109, 1, 6); // This is 6th Feb, 2009
wdContext.currentTimelogElement().setToDate(toDate);
For details, refer http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/sql/Date.html
Hope this answers your query.
Kind Regards,
Nitin
