    It would be nice if there was some usage info for this classes, just need to spend hours trying to figure out what the methods are etc… Otherwise I am sure it works great.

    I’ve done this code a long time ago, but I managed to find a post in the mdm forum having a small example

    Hello i work with Zend 3.0… in your DateManager exists a ftpDate Function -> d:String… how do you commit the date to the function …. when i use http://ftp.getFileDateTime i get “Aug 28 16:41″ 

    HOW do you get the format dd/mm/yyyy in your d String? i get crazy :) is it possible that this is a zinc 3.0 Bug at the getFileDateTime??? please help

    It’s been so long, I can’t remember but I know that the link in the comments links to an example. Also this class is used in a FTP manager class (which I’ve done also, available probably on the blog or on mdm forum under zeflasher).
    Sorry I can’t be more help.

    i saw this example… in the example for ftp is used the code on bottom. The Problem is, that yourFileArray[i][1] returns “Aug 26 16:41″ and not “dd/mm/yyyy” like in your example :) i don’t now WHY i have this format :( bummer… i thought maybe you remember :) thanks anyway…
    for (var i:Number = 0; i<yourFileArray.length; i++) {yourFileArray[i][1] = DateManager.ftpDate(yourFileArray[i][1]);}

    Hello Turanligil,

    Well this class has been created against the MDM Zinc API 2.5, so if you are using the 3.0 the function to get the date might return the date formated differently. I would think that they provide some options to format the date now… I will check tomorrow (12.30AM here) and let you know.

    Have a good day.
