Clear or delete a date category attribute

Andrew_Caplinger

I'm using a C# program to synchronize client and matter category info to OTRM/OTCS via Content Web Services.  One of the fields I'm pushing is a Matter Close date and occasionally the matter is reopened and thus the close date should return to NULL.  This is trivial to do in the web front-end by setting the date to blank.  I can successfully set any field values via the program and I can set a String value to empty string, but I can't find any method to clear out a date value.  Furthermore, I can't find any method in C# to clear an attribute value despite being tantalized by examples in Java showing a .Clear() method.

Any help?

I figured it out, and it was much simpler than I was making it.

Here's a snippet:

    DateValue dv = new DateValue();    dv.Key = dr["mclKey"].ToString();    dv.Values = new DateTime?[1];    if (dr["clearmcl"].Equals(1)) {        dv.Values.SetValue((DateTime?)null,0);    }    else {        dv.Values.SetValue((DateTime?)dr["mcl"], 0);    }    UpdateNodeCategories(ref dn, (PrimitiveValue)dv, catKey);
