Date.NextTime() failing on CS10.5

The Date.NextTime() function started failing for me today on CS10.5. For example:

Date now = Date.ListToDate({2015, 10, 30, 0, 0, 0}) // 30 October 2015Date later = Date.NextTime(now, 1, 1, 62, 0) // should return 2 November 2015echo(later) // actually returns 1 October 2015

The Date.NextTime() function is used by the agents to calculate the next date an agent should run. In particular, the default Midnight Event Producer or LateEventProducer (AgentID=1000) by default uses the input values in the example above. This is causing my daily agent to run every five minutes today.

This works correctly on CS10.

I think 4095 for the "MonthsOfYear" parameter will do, i.e.Date later = Date.NextTime(now, 1, 1, 62, 405)

Please note, the values of NextTime are bit masks not actual values as you have them. That being said we seem to have replicated a difference between 10.0 and 10.5+. Running some tests now.

Hi David,

Please note, the values of NextTime are bit masks not actual values as you have them.

The example I posted is with bit masks (e.g., 62 is the bit mask for Monday to Friday) and matches the default bit mask values for the LateEventProducer.

I just wanted to close the loop on this. We have found the issue and has been fixed in the code branch. We are deciding the delivery methods at this point. Hopefully we can get it out soon for the affected updates of 10.5
