DateSpinner

[dcf]

Hello.

I am using a DateSpinner object in my swing app. It displays the current date fine, but when the component is changed, the getValue() method only returns the original date - it does not capture the date entered by the user.

I have also tried using the commitEdit() prior to the getValue() method. Any ideas as to what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks.

Do you mean the new date value user typed? Did you try press ENTER? I remembered JSpinner requires an extra enter to commit the value.

Yes, I mean after the user types in the change. It does not work after hitting enter - and it does not seem as though it should be necessary from a user's perspective.

Unfortunately that's how Swing JSpinner works. DateSpinner simply extends JSpinner. I don't yet know how to change it. I would think commitEdit should work but you said you tried it already.

Thanks,
