B4J Question Datepicker in internal designer

[upsis]

How do I implement datepicker in internal designer? I tried using jrldatepicker and others but they use scene buider.

The date picker was not added to the jFX library (and the internal designer) because it requires Java 8.

It will be added in the next version of B4J.

As a workaround you could use a JavaObject. Example:

'Create a datepicker and add to the mainform
'Define JavaObject (requires JavaObject Library) Private joDatePicker As JavaObject
'Reference:http://javafx.scene.control.DatePicker
Sub CreateDatePicker
    'Init the datepickerobject
      joDatePicker.InitializeNewInstance("javafx.scene.control.DatePicker", Null)
      MainForm.RootPane.AddNode(joDatePicker, 0, 0, -1, -1)
    'Set some properties
    joDatePicker.RunMethod("setShowWeekNumbers", Array As Object(True))
    'Set actual date
    Dim joLD As JavaObject
    joLD.InitializeStatic("java.time.LocalDate")
    joDatePicker.RunMethod("setValue", Array As Object(joLD.RunMethod("now", Null)))                                                                                                             
End Sub

'Get the selected datevalue and add to a label view
Sub ButtonDatePicker_Action
    LabelDatePicker.Text = joDatePicker.RunMethod("getValue", Null)
End Sub
