Detailed Description

A date picker.

A date picker shows a line edit and an icon which when clicked popups a WCalendar for editing the date. Any date entered in the line edit is reflected in the calendar, and vice-versa.

Each of these widgets may be accessed individually (lineEdit(), calendar(), and displayWidget()) and there is a constructor that allows you to specify an existing line edit and display widget.

The date format used by default is "dd/MM/yyyy" and can be changed using setFormat(). At any time, the date set may be read using date(), or can be changed using setDate().

Usage example:

Wt::WDatePicker *picker = addWidget(std::make_unique<Wt::WDatePicker>());
picker->setFormat("dd-MM-yyyy");
picker->setDate(Wt::WDate(1976, 6, 14));
A signal that conveys user-interface events.
Definition WSignal.h:558
A date picker.
Definition WDatePicker.h:54
A value class that represents a date on the Gregorian calendar.
Definition WDate.h:62

i18n

Internationalization of WDatePicker is mostly handled through the internationalization mechanism of WDate.

Deprecated:
The date picker is deprecated in favor of WDateEdit

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ WDatePicker() [1/3]

Wt::WDatePicker::WDatePicker ( )

Create a new date picker.

This constructor creates a line edit with an icon that leads to a popup calendar. A WDateValidator is configured for the line edit.

◆ WDatePicker() [2/3]

Wt::WDatePicker::WDatePicker ( WLineEdit forEdit)

Create a new date picker for a line edit.

This constructor creates an icon that leads to a popup calendar.

The forEdit argument is the lineEdit that works in conjunction with the date picker. This widget does not become part of the date picker, and may be located anywhere else.

◆ WDatePicker() [3/3]

Wt::WDatePicker::WDatePicker ( std::unique_ptr< WInteractWidget displayWidget,
WLineEdit forEdit 
)

Create a new date picker for existing line edit and with custom display widget.

The displayWidget is a button or image which much be clicked to open the date picker.

The forEdit argument is the lineEdit that works in conjunction with the date picker.

Member Function Documentation

◆ calendar()

WCalendar * Wt::WDatePicker::calendar ( ) const

The calendar widget.

Returns the calendar widget.

◆ changed()

Signal & Wt::WDatePicker::changed ( )

Signal emitted when the value has changed.

This signal is emitted when a new date has been entered (either through the line edit, or through the calendar popup).

◆ date()

WDate Wt::WDatePicker::date ( ) const

The current date.

Reads the current date from the lineEdit().

Returns an invalid date (for which WDate::isValid() returns false) if the date could not be parsed using the current format().

See also
setDate(), WDate::fromString(), WLineEdit::text()

◆ dateValidator()

std::shared_ptr< WDateValidator > Wt::WDatePicker::dateValidator ( ) const
virtual

Returns the validator.

Most of the configuration of the date edit is stored in the validator.

◆ displayWidget()

WInteractWidget * Wt::WDatePicker::displayWidget ( ) const

The display widget.

Returns the icon which activates the popup.

◆ format()

const WString & Wt::WDatePicker::format ( ) const

Returns the format.

See also
setFormat()

◆ lineEdit()

WLineEdit * Wt::WDatePicker::lineEdit ( ) const

The line edit.

Returns the line edit which works in conjunction with this date picker.

◆ popupClosed()

Signal & Wt::WDatePicker::popupClosed ( )

A signal which indicates that the popup has been closed.

The signal is only fired when the popup has been closed by the user.

◆ popupWidget()

WPopupWidget * Wt::WDatePicker::popupWidget ( ) const

The popup widget.

Returns the popup widget that contains the calendar.

◆ render()

void Wt::WDatePicker::render ( WFlags< RenderFlag flags)
overrideprotectedvirtual

Renders the widget.

This function renders the widget (or an update for the widget), after this has been scheduled using scheduleRender().

The default implementation will render the widget by serializing changes to JavaScript and HTML. You may want to reimplement this widget if you have been postponing some of the layout / rendering implementation until the latest moment possible. In that case you should make sure you call the base implementation however.

Reimplemented from Wt::WCompositeWidget.

◆ setDate()

void Wt::WDatePicker::setDate ( const WDate date)

Sets the current date.

Does nothing if the current date is Null.

See also
date()

◆ setDisabled()

void Wt::WDatePicker::setDisabled ( bool  disabled)
overridevirtual

Sets whether the widget is disabled.

Enables or disables the widget (including all its descendant widgets). setDisabled(false) will enable this widget and all descendant widgets that are not disabled. A widget is only enabled if it and all its ancestors in the widget tree are disabled.

Typically, a disabled form widget will not allow changing the value, and disabled widgets will not react to mouse click events.

Note
enable() and disable() are considered to be stateless slots by default. If you override setDisabled() and need to modify server state whenever it is called, you'll need to call WObject::isNotStateless().
See also
disable(), enable()

Reimplemented from Wt::WCompositeWidget.

◆ setEnabled()

void Wt::WDatePicker::setEnabled ( bool  enabled)

Sets whether the widget is enabled.

This is the oppositie of setDisabled().

◆ setFormat()

void Wt::WDatePicker::setFormat ( const WString format)

Sets the format used for parsing or writing the date in the line edit.

Sets the format used for representing the date in the line edit. If the line edit has a WDateValidator configured for it, then also there the format is updated.

The default format is 'dd/MM/yyyy'.
