I am experiencing some problems with date fields in xpages. All date fields are saved on document as a normal text items instead of being saved as Date/Time. It looks like the problems lies in complexity of my design (I am using embedded xpages width dozens of custom controls).
The data source is not binded to any form but this should not cause any problems because I have tested date fields in simpler configuration and items were properly saved as date/time type.
Has anyone encountered similar behaviour ? Maybe somebody has some idea on how to isolate the problem, because right now I dont know where to look ?
I can’t really provide much input into what the problem may possibly be without maybe seeing a snippet of code which shows your date field. Could post up a snippet by any chance?
In the meantime all I can ask are the basics:-
Are you using an edit box control?
If so, have you set the “display type” to “Date/Time” under properties>Data? (This will attach the relevant converters for you)
