How to get the current Date

With the following piece of code, I am able to get the current date in bpe forms, but not when I put it in any of the forms logged in using end user(not even in end user menu).
<Field name='request.submitDate'>
<Display class='Label'>
<Property name='value'>
<invoke name='dateToString' class='com.waveset.util.Util'>
<ref>java.util.Date</ref>
</invoke>
</Property>
</Display>
</Field>
The following error is getting displayed in the end user menu form.
XPRESS exception:
Can't call method dateToString on class com.waveset.util.Util ==> java.lang.NullPointerException: -------can anyone please help me out
or can anyone suggest a way for getting the current date
Regards
Gajendra Nagapurkar

The <ref> tag is used to refer to the value of some variable. The value of the variable java.util.Date in your example is NULL, because it doesn't exist!
If you remove that argument from your <invoke>, the call resolves to the method com.waveset.util.Util.dateToString() and will return something like "20050810 11:00:21".

How to get the "current date" in the BEx?

Hi all,
I need to get the "current date" in my Bex report in order to make a comparison. I know there is a "How to" which shows how to get the current date via a User Exit, but I didn't find it. Could you please help me?
Thanks

1. Create a New Formula in Key Figures structure
2. Give tech name and description and Select "New variable" option
3. Next screen will launch Variable Wizard -> create a new variable with replacement path as processing type
4. in next screene select the date characteristic that represents the first date to use in the calculation (From Date)
5. In the next screen select Key in the Replace Variable with field. Leave all the other options as they are
6. In the next Currencies and Units screen select Date as the Dimension ID.
6. Save variable
repeate the Above steps to create another variable (To Date)
and now you can use these two new replacement path variables in your new formula.

How to get the current date and compare dates

hi
does anyone know how you would get the current date?
furthermore, how to compare the current date with a past date to see how many days or months have past since then?
thanks

have a look at the Date class. new Date() creates an object containing the exact date and time at creation time. (Date).getTime() might be useful for comparing two dates. GregorianCalendar might be useful, too.

Get the current date

How does one get the current date?

I would not use the date object (mostly deprecated), instead use the Calendar object.
See...

GregorianCalendar - getting the current date

Hi,
Have any of the Calendar classes been changed in version 1.5. I'm trying to get the current date and time in an application, to add to filenames when they are backed up. In java 1.4 the following code was sufficient to get the information required:
GregorianCalendar cal = new GregorianCalendar();
filename = "C:\\Program Files\\Apache Group\\Apache2\\www\\test\\htdocs\\backups\\";
filename += theFile;
filename += "=" + getUser() + "=" + cal.get( Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY ) + "_" +
     cal.get( Calendar.MINUTE ) + "=" + cal.get( Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH ) + "_" +
     ( cal.get( Calendar.MONTH ) + 1 ) + "_" + cal.get( Calendar.YEAR );
I'm writing another app using the same code and SDK 1.5, but it's returning the same values every time.
Cheers
Matt

I wrote a small program to test the Calendar object on my system:
import java.util.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.awt.*;
public class Tester extends Frame implements ActionListener
     public Tester()
          javax.swing.Timer timer = new javax.swing.Timer( 1000, this );
          timer.start();
          setSize( 400, 400 );
          show();
          addWindowListener(
               new WindowAdapter()
                    public void windowClosing( WindowEvent e )
                         System.exit( 0 );
     public void actionPerformed( ActionEvent e )
          Calendar cal = new GregorianCalendar();
          System.out.println( "Time: " + cal.HOUR + ":" + cal.MINUTE + ":" + cal.SECOND );
     public static void main( String args[] )
          Tester t = new Tester();
This repeatedly outputs:
10:12:13
I tried this with Calendar and GregorianCalendar. Both of them do not seem to work. I'm not using the same Calendar object, or outputing in the same second....

Get the Current Date and Time of a Location

I have created a windowsPhoneApplication in silverLight 8.1.In my application,I have to upload videos on some server.The Uploading get failed If the Date and Time settings of my device is not the current Date and Time.So How can I get the current date
and time even if the device settings is wrong?

Hi shifana,
Do you know server's time zone? If yes, you can manually translate to the correct time zone.
Otherwise try some online time acquire API.

Kindly help me in this regard
Thanks
Naveen

Naveen,
    Are yo having issue when you save something in the layout, the data doesn't appear in the listcube ? Or do you have issue that the latest data you see in the cube doesn't appear in the layout ?
For the former issue, please look at your selections of listcube and for the second issue, please check your planning level definition, make sure all the restrictions you have applied are valid for this latest data to be presented in the layout.
Hope this helps.
Cheers

How to get the current date in standby display?

My N73 ( 3.0705.1.0.31 ) displays the current date/day only in the general profile. When I switch to any other profile, that place is taken over by the profile name.
Is it possible to get the date/day displayed in a non general profile?
If it is otherwise, the 240x320 display is of little use...
V 4.0727.2.2.1
04-07-2007, RM-133
(C) Nokia N73 (Z5.01)

That's the way it goes. In addition you see the date/time on the screensaver with every/any profile.

How to get the current date using HTMLB JSP page

Hi All, I developed an iview with several fields using PDK, I would like to know how can I include for a date field a dynamic value witch in this case is the current date.
<hbj:inputField
id="Date"
type="date"
maxlength="10"
showHelp="TRUE"
required="TRUE"
value="???"
/>
Thanks in advance
Alexis

Hi Alexis ,
u can use the setDate("3.12.2003") function to set date for this input field.
u just change the id = Date , because in jave we have Date class. rename it to another name..
suppose id = systemDate
<%
Format formater = new SimpleDateFormat("dd.MM.yyyy");
Date syDatum = new Date();
%>
then
put
    systemDate.setDate(formater.format(syDatum));
this will set the date .....
                    Regards
