Products.MxDateTimeField 1.2
Note: This module is meant to be used in migrated sites and not for
modern plone 4.x use.
This field enables Archetypes to use mxDateTime fields. It is very simple,
it just transforms (well formed) strings into mxDateTime values. You can use
the Field in Archetypes schemas like this:
...
from Products.MxDateTimeField import MxDateTimeField
...
schema= Schema((
MxDateTimeField('BirthDate'),
...
The benefit of the MxDateTimeField is that a wider range of time designations
is supported, dates may range from 5’000’000CE to 5’000’000BCE. Sometimes
you encounter Problems in Plone when you want to use such dates.
Installation
You need to install egenix mxDateTime first, it is part of ‘mxBase’, see
http://www.egenix.com/files/python/eGenix-mx-Extensions.html#Download-mxBASE
Several Operating Systems are offering the egenix mxDateTime within their
package management systems.
Then just put the MxDateTime folder into your Zopes ‘Products’ directory.
The Product should be listed among your Zopes Products in the control panel.
Thanks
Thanks to Philipp Auersperg and Jens Klein for their hints and tips and
for AGX ;-)
