requirements

  • always display the date in this format: dd-MMM-yyyy
  • allow entering the date by digits only, eg. 311212 becomes 31-dec-2012
  • allow entering = for todays date
  • allow entering +3 for three days from today
  • if an invalid date is entered, show a message. do not delete the input
  • only throw a DateChanged event if there is a new valid date, or the date has been deleted

code

  • there is a NUnit test
  • there is a test application

events

DateChanged

  • used in csharp\ICT\Petra\Client\MFinance\Gui\Gift\UC_GiftBatches-generated.Designer.cs, calling UpdateBatchPeriod

problems

  • event LostFocused is only triggered on the screen, but not when the text property is changed, in the unit test
    • Solution: test application with a screen
  • enter 30: messagebox, invalid date. but enter some text, no message box
    • fixed
  • UK culture: can parse 20-MARCH-2012, but not 20-NOVEMBER-2012
    • cannot reproduce
