XdevInlineDateField

The XdevInlineDateField is a date selector that contains a monthly overview for selecting or displaying an individual date. With the help of the control bar, you can navigate back and forth by month and year. The XdevInlineDateField is a form component, and it can be persisted via the XdevFieldGroup.

Important events:

• valueChange - Is triggered when the selection has been changed. 

Examples:

• Allocate date - Allocates the date to the XdevinlineDateField. This triggers a valueChange event.

  // Creates a date 1979-7-5
  Date dateOfBirth = new Date(79,6,5);
   
  // Sets the date to the inlineDateField
  inlineDateField.setValue(dateOfBirth);

• Read date 

  Date date = inlineDateField.getValue();

• Reset selection - Sets the selection to the initial state. This triggers a valueChange event.

  inlineDateField.clear();

• Set focus - Allocates the focus to the XdevPopupDateField. This can trigger a focus event, if necessary.

  inlineDateField.focus();

Note:

• Date methods deprecated: A number of different methods for the Date class are indicated as deprecated. However, Vaadin currently supports only the Date class.
