It turns out the things are a bit more complicated. The FormField class
View/FormField/Input/Text/Date.php, as its path suggests, treats dates as strings. So,
I can't do
Code:
* @Column (type="integer")
*/
protected $mydate
public getMydate {
return $this->mydate
}
public setMydate($value) {
$this->mydate=$value;
return $this;
}
in the model class (or type="date" for that matter)
and use View/FormField/Input/Text/Date.php for editing the entity, i.e.
Code:
protected $schemaDefault = array(
...
'mydate. => array(
self::SCHEMA_CLASS => 'XLite\View\FormField\Input\Text\Date'
self::SCHEMA_LABEL => 'My Date',
self::SCHEMA_REQUIRED => false,),
...
it won't save the date. For the dates to be saved this way, I need to declare the column type as string. The problem is, the "dates" saved this way becomes inaccessible once I change the default formatting of the dates for the store.
The only place, it seems to me, where there is the date to be input manually in X-Cart's original code, is the arrival date for products, but there, the class View/FormModel/Type/DatepickerType.php is used. My entities don't use the DTO, so I can't use this class. So, the question now is: how do I get around this problem?
I would need something like
Code:
public setMydate($value) {
$value=strtotime($value);
$this->mydate=$value;
return $this;
}
?
