RE: Fetching the java.util.Date for current date through velocity

[camille vienot, geändert vor 15 Jahren.]

Hello,
I am trying to diplay through an article the following event coming up in my Calendar porler. In the template file, I can access all the CalEvents through the findServiceLocator velocity variable, including the java.util.Date, through the getStartDate() method. However, to choose which one to display, I need the current date. If I can fetch it in a String format through $dateUtil.getCurrentDate("yyyyMMdd", $locale), I cannot get it at a java.util.Date format. I tried $dateUtil.getCurrentDate(), as in the init.vm file used for themes, but it does not work.
Any idea of how I could do
Thanks
Camille

instead of

$dateUtil

, try

$dateTool.getDate()

... or

$dateTool.getSystemDate()
