Veirfying a String for date

Is there any method by means of which a string can be verified to be a date?
I am using DateFormat but I get the feeling there must be a simpler method

The answer to the first line of your question is YES. But the second line of your question indicates that you already knew that. And no, there isn't a simpler method because people insist in formatting their dates in 73 different ways instead of sticking to a standard way.

  • Report Designer odbc connection string for data source using a parameter

    I am using stand alone report designer 3 for the present and have a question/problem regarding the odbc connection string for MySQL when setting up the data-source
    I need to be able to enter a parameter which is the database name i.e. BOE-201401 or say BOE-201312 etc  from a list of databases the user can choose from.
    at present the odbc connection string points to BOE-201402
    the connection string is at present  Dsn=Development Server for MYsql;description=MYSQL;server=ldndw01;database=BOE-201402;port=3306
    my parameter has the name BOE_DATABASE
    and in an expression it is  as such
    =Parameters!BOE_DATABASE.Value
    I want to point the datasource for the report to the parameter value before the user sees the report.

    Hi Leslie,
    Based on your description, we want to design a report with a dynamic DataSource connection string. There are the basic steps below for your reference:
    Create report with static database.
    Change data source to report parameter.
    Send new database connection string as a report parameter. 
    More detail information, please refer to the following blog: Dynamic Database in SSRS 2008.

  • Generated schema on a query returns xsd:string for date data type

    I'm a complete newbie to oracle's xml generation and have encountered the following problem. But first the important details:
    select * from v$version
    Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.2.0 - Prod
    PL/SQL Release 10.2.0.2.0 - Production
    "CORE     10.2.0.2.0     Production"
    TNS for Linux: Version 10.2.0.2.0 - Production
    NLSRTL Version 10.2.0.2.0 - Production
    We have a large number of dynamic queries that we would like to generate xml for. I'm currently using the dbms_query.getXML(context, 2) to generate the schema definition for the columns as well as the xml row data. Currently, the problem I have is that the schema definition for date columns is being returned as xsd:string rather than xsd:date. I've no idea why it is coming back that way, and haven't found anything to point me in the direction of any configuration data where this can be changed. Here is the table and code I'm using:
    query: select dbms_xmlquery.getxml('select * from clh_xml_test',2) from dual
    table definition:
    create table CLH_XML_TEST
    ID NUMBER not null,

  • Test String for date format

    Is there a function that reads a string and can return yes/no if the string matches a specified date format (example: mm/dd/yy)? I wish to avoid parsing the string character by character.
    Thanks,
    George

    BTW,
    I used the following example code available from this site. I was able to easily modify it to sovle my problem.
    try {
    SimpleDateFormat formatter =
    new SimpleDateFormat("EEEE, MMMM dd, yyyy");
    Date d = formatter.parse(
    "Tuesday, January 03, 1956");
    formatter = new SimpleDateFormat(
    "EE, MMM d, yy");
    d = formatter.parse("Tue, Jan 3, 56");
    formatter = new SimpleDateFormat(
    "EE, MM d, yy");
    d = formatter.parse("Tue, 01 3, 56");
    process(d);
    } catch (ParseException e) {

  • Incrementing a string number for date and time

    There are probably a lot of ways to do this, but I only want to use a bunch of if - else loops if I really need to.
    I have a date and time for input, let's say 2006-04-19 22:00. In Java, if I convert that to 3 integers (year, month, day), it will output 2006-4-19. I need to be able to increment in a loop for every day and month from one date to the next. If I keep it as a string, I won't be able to increment the value though, (at least I'm not sure how). I'm thinking that even if I converted it to an integer and back to a string, that the leading zero would be removed.
    I found a post here that said something about formatting the number with 2 numbers, by using:
    DecimalFormat format = new DecimalFormat("00");
    format.format(1, sb, new FieldPosition(0));
    Or is there a way to use the gregorianCalendar stuff that would output the date with all of the zeros in place, while incrementing and looping correctly?
    Thanks.

    I would get a Date object--you can use java.text.SimpleDateFormat if you're starting with a String--and use that to create a GregorianCalendar. Then you can just call Calendar's add method to add one to whichever field you want. Use the SimpleDateFormat to turn the date back into a String for display again.

  • Validation For Date,String and Date in a reports Region

    Apex 4
    Good day to all apex users How do I validate a apex_item.text if the value is string the user can only input a string value if it is number then the user can input numbers only and if it is a date the user can only input a date values?

    APEX_ITEMS are not part of the default apex gui... In fact they are just functions which returns html.
    You can however do some stuff with the attributes parameters. You can find some cool stuff over here: Re: Validation For Date,String and Date in a reports Region
    If you want apex validation you need to create a page validation and loop over your apex_items with apex_application.g_f0x

  • Where-clause for date-string

    Hi specialist's,
    i have a simple question about a select, but I think I do not see the forrest becaus of too many trees ...
    I have a table where timestamps are stored in seconds-since-epoch.
    I select a human readble format with this statement:
    select to_char(DATE '1970-01-01' + TRXTIMESTAMP / (24*3600*1000), 'DD-MM-YYYY HH24:MI:SS')  as timestamp from txlog;
    TIMESTAMP
    19-10-2013 09:31:27
    19-10-2013 09:31:27
    19-10-2013 09:31:27
    Now I want to filter i.e. for dates of 19-01.... 
    My first try was this:
    select to_char(DATE '1970-01-01' + TRXTIMESTAMP / (24*3600*1000), 'DD-MM-YYYY HH24:MI:SS')  as timestamp from txlog
      where timestamp like '19-%'
    Result:
    ORA-00904: "TIMESTAMP": invalid identifier
    My next try was this:
    select to_char(DATE '1970-01-01' + TRXTIMESTAMP / (24*3600*1000), 'DD-MM-YYYY HH24:MI:SS')  as timestamp from txlog
    where 1 like '19%'
    Result: 0 rows!
    If I change this to
    ... where 1 like '%'
    I get all rows.
    What is wrong with my selects ???

    Firstly, why not store timestamps as timestamps?
    Anyway, Your first select refers to the alias 'timestamp' which is only accessible in an outer query, not from within the where clause.
    Try
    Select * from (
    select to_char(DATE '1970-01-01' + TRXTIMESTAMP / (24*3600*1000), 'DD-MM-YYYY HH24:MI:SS')  as timestamp from txlog
    where timestamp like '19-%';
    But timestamp is not a good choice for an alias, as it is a keyword.
    Your second select is obvious - the number 1 will never be like '19%', but it will work
    in the third select: as 1 is indeed like '%' (anything).

    just keep adding DATEADD("DAY",-2,.... to each getdate()
    like

  • [svn:bz-trunk] 11030: Tweak the deserialization of ASObjects to treat an empty string for the type of an object as null .

    Revision: 11030
    Author:   [email protected]
    Date:     2009-10-20 11:35:02 -0700 (Tue, 20 Oct 2009)
    Log Message:
    Tweak the deserialization of ASObjects to treat an empty string for the type of an object as null. It appears that there is some logic in the LC remoting code that relies on a non-null class name to always exist. This change reverts to the old behavior of not allowing empty string as a value for the ASObject.namedType.
    This should fix bug 2448442 and its duplicates caused by the recent serialization changes.
    I don't think this is the perfect fix. Pending further investigation, a better fix would be either:
    a. If it's OK to assume that empty string should always mean null for the type of the ASObject, the code that enforces it should be in the setter/getter inside ASObject and not in the deserializer.
    b. ASObject doesn't guarantee that a named type exists or is valid. In that sense an empty string is as bad as some random characters that cannot be a valid class name in java, so depending on how disruptive it may be, the fix should be in any logic that uses ASObject.getType().

    Hi Pavan,
    "In your payload there is no namespace prefix for the elements under PayloadHeader element."
    Yes, you are right - but this message is standard AQ Adapter Header message - it's not defined by me. I just used message which was automatically added to my project when I have defined AQ Adapter.
    "In your process is the default namespace is same as namespace value of tns ??"
    Do you mean targetNamespace? If yes it's different as it points to process "targetNamespace="http://xmlns.oracle.com/PF_SOA_jws/PF_APPS/APPS_PROCESS" (names of application and process have changed as I try different ways to do that)
    ns1 is: xmlns:ns1="http://xmlns.oracle.com/pcbpel/adapter/aq/PF_SOA/PF_APPS/PO_AQ"
    "another thing is tns and ns1 should have same values.."
    When I create a variable of header type, namespace ns1 is automatically created for it. I set it as property of receive activity. When process is instantiated on the serwer I get the error in which you can see that namespace is tns.
    Maybe I'm doing something wrong but I don't see how I could fix this in my process.
    You can see that the message I get on the server has nothing in common with the application/project/process names. Is it possible to define such variable?
    Regards
    Pawel
    PS:
    In Transformation xsl file, both variables (source and target) has tns namespace for Header and PayloadHeader, and no namespace for subfields.

    First "problem". Don't store dates as string. Store them as dates. It will save you so much headache don't the road you won't believe it.
    True, this is a view, so maybe not as critical - assuming the underlying *DATA* is actually a date.
    1. TO FIND ITEM_NAME WISE  -  QTY_RECEIVED AND QTY_SOLD ( FOR CURRENT MONTH - EXAMPLE SEP )
    2. TO FIND ITEM_NAME WISE  -  QTY_RECEIVED AND QTY_SOLD   (FOR CURRENT YEAR EXAMPLE FROM JAN TO SEP )
    So yeah, based on these requirements, I'd recommend you make that column a DATE, not a string. Dates are easier to parse for date-related logic - such as month by month as you need here.
    Using that, here's one way to do it:
    with w_data as (
          select 'AX' item_code, 'TSHIRT ' item_name, to_date('20130701','yyyymmdd') trans_dt, 3000 qty_recd, 2000 qty_sold from dual union all
          select 'AX'          , 'TSHIRT '          , to_date('20130801','yyyymmdd')         , 2000         , 500           from dual union all
          select 'AX'          , 'TSHIRT '          , to_date('20130901','yyyymmdd')         , 1000         , 3000          from dual union all
          select 'CX'          , 'XLSHIRT'          , to_date('20130701','yyyymmdd')         , 3000         , 2000          from dual union all
          select 'CX'          , 'XLSHIRT'          , to_date('20130801','yyyymmdd')         , 3000         , 2500          from dual union all
          select 'CX'          , 'XLSHIRT'          , to_date('20130901','yyyymmdd')         , 3000         , 2500          from dual
       w_base as (
          select item_code, item_name, trans_dt, qty_recd, qty_sold,
                 sum(qty_recd) over (partition by item_code, trunc(trans_dt, 'MM')) mm_recd,
                 sum(qty_sold) over (partition by item_code, trunc(trans_dt, 'MM')) mm_sold,
                 sum(qty_recd) over (partition by item_code, trunc(trans_dt, 'YY')) yy_recd,
                 sum(qty_sold) over (partition by item_code, trunc(trans_dt, 'YY')) yy_sold,
                 row_number() over (partition by item_code order by trans_dt desc) rnum
            from w_data d
    Select item_code, item_name, mm_recd, mm_sold, yy_recd, yy_sold
      from w_base
    where rnum = 1

  • Convert String to Date and Format the Date Expression in SSRS

    Hi,
    I have a parameter used to select a month and year  string that looks like:    jun-2013
    I can convert it to a date, but what I want to do is,  when a user selects a particular month-year  (let's say "jun-2013")
    I  populate one text box with the date the user selected , and (the challenge Im having is)  I want to populate a text box next to the first text box with the month-year  2 months ahead.    So if the user selects 
    jun-2013   textbox A will show  jun-2013 
    and textbox B will show  aug-2013..
    I have tried:
    =Format(Format(CDate(Parameters!month.Value  ),  
    "MM-YYYY"  )+ 2  )   -- But this gives an error
    This returns the month in number format   like "8"    for august...
    =Format(Format(CDate(Parameters!month.Value  ), 
    "MM"  )+ 2  )
    What is the proper syntax to give me the result    in this format =  "aug-2013"  ???
    Thanks in advance.

    You can convert a string that represents a date to a date object using the util.scand JavaScript method, and then format a date object to a string representation using the util.printd method. For more information, see:
    http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.1254.html
    http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.1251.html
    In your case, the code would be something like:
    var sDate = "2013-01-10";
    // Convert string to date
    var oDate = util.scand("yyyy-mm-dd", sDate);
    // Convert date to new string
    var sDate2 = util.printd("mm/dd/yyyy", oDate);
    // Set a field value
    getField("date2").value = sDate2;
    The exact code you'd use depends on where you place the script and where you're getting the original date string, but this should get you started.

    Date date=new Date();You don't need this line.
    Date dateFormatter = new
    er = new
    SimpleDateFormat("yyyy'-'MM'-'dd").parse(str1);;As already told, you don't need the single quotes. And you don't need two semi-colons - that's unnecessary.
    I just wrote a sample code to test that out. Check it and see for yourself.
    import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
    public class Test {
         public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
              System.out.println(new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd").parse("2005-04-18"));
              System.out.println(new SimpleDateFormat("'yyyy'-'MM'-'dd'").parse("2005-04-18"));
    }Output:

    Exception in thread "main" java.text.ParseException: Unparseable date: "2005-04-18"
            at java.text.DateFormat.parse(DateFormat.java:335)
            at Test.main(Test.java:6)I wonder why it is not feasible to write a quick sample code.

    Fix typo in error string for situations where there are advanced messaging configuration settings from LCDS used in the configuration files but no AdvancedMessagingSupport service. The error string said that there was no flex.messaging.services.AdvancedMessagingService registered but it is the flex.messaging.services.AdvancedMessagingSupport service that needs to be registered.
    Add configuration test that starts the server with a destination that has the reliable property set which is an advanced messaging feature but there is no AdvancedMessagingSupport service registered.

    Hi,
    Unfortunately I already tried all kinds of re-installs (the full list is in my original message). The only one remaining is the reinstall of Windows 8 itself, which I would really like to avoid.
    What I find really strange is the time it takes for the above error message to appear. It's like one hour or even more (never measured exactly, I left the computer running).
    What kind of a timeout is that? I would expect that, if ports are really used by some other application, I get the message in less than a minute (seconds, actually). To me this looks like the emulator itself for some reason believes there's a problem with
    some port while in reality there isn't.
    I'll eventually contact Microsoft Support, thanks for the suggestion.
