IWDCRInfo.getModificationDate

We have Implemented some changes in our API (js) files. So when a user saves the DCR the new data would be loaded in the DCR.

But again if the user edits the same DCR , the remote server call would be done and the same data would be again uploaded. This would lead to a major bottle neck.
we are getting the date last modified using the below command.

IWDCRInfo.getModificationDate()

is there any way to compare the date to something like
i.e. 12/20/2006 and if this is true then only call the remove server ( from form API).

Pls help me for the same.

I think you would just create Date() objects in your javascript and do the comparison from there.

I was looking at a javascript 1.4 guide and it indicates that you can do that.

Something like:

dcrDate = new Date(IWDCRInfo.getModificationDate());

then I believe you can just use standard logic operators on the Date object.

Haven't tested it so no guarantees.

Hope that helps.

Thanks for the reply. you were correct.

I Just had to use something as below

var dcr_Date = new Date(IWDCRInfo.getModificationDate());
var year=(dcr_Date.getYear());
alert(year+"Year Last updated");

after that i can use the variable year for further comaprison.

The below URL was too helpful for the same.
