Bug "Self-invalidating time in EditTime"? [message #6568]

I have a ParentCtrl and on it an EditTime.

I enter "12" into EditTime. The Ctrl's background stays white which should indicate that this value is to be accepted.

When I leave this control the "12" is replaced by "11/18/2006 12:00:00" which makes absolutely sense: today's date and 12 hours 0 minutes and 0 seconds.

But at the same time the background turns red indicating that this will not be accepted! Indeed trying to leave the application results in the error message "Invalid date/time:invalid character '/' following date/time." (It goes without saying that there is no '/' following, at least not a visible one.)

Am I missing something?

I'm not sure about the '/'... sounds like maybe it's a locale/date format problem? It certainly caused me some grief Smile

Maybe it sees "2006 12:00:00" and expects it to be just the year, rejects it and thus considers the previous '/' as the start of garbage.

I don't use any specific locale. So the date format should be the American English one "MM.DD.YYYY".

The problem is that the control seems to recognize the value correctly. After all it shows the correct date (in American English format) plus the entered time. But then it invalidates this value although it seems to be absolutely correct.

No, but U++ is (was) missing correct implementation of ConvertTime...

Now fixed.
