GWT Time Picker?

Question

Does anyone know if in GWT we have a good TimePicker ? In fact I want a widget in order to select hour and minute for GWT.

Thanks

Answer 1

AFAIK there's no such a widget. Also "a good TimePicker" is a bit suggestive. I've been looking for such a widget for a long time and I found some javascript examples that were completely awful, but some people is using.

Finally I decided to do my own, based in a TextBox with value control.

The source code is available, you can find more info here and on github I hope you like it.

I have seen some TimePicker that are simple ComboBoxes.

Answer 2

I wrote a Time Picker recently. I wrote it in a hurry, so it's not the best out there, but it works fine.

It attempts to create a HTML5 <input type="time"/> and if it's not supported by the browser, it parses manually. I have tested it on Chrome and Firefox on PC, and iOS.

Accepted formats are:

• 12:59 AM
• 5 - assumed to be 5 AM
• 5p - 5:00 PM
• 13 - 1 PM
• 345 - 3:45 AM
• 1534 - 3:34 PM
• 111p - 1:11 PM

it implements HasValue<Long> to return the picked time as milliseconds. It also has a method to return the time combined with a given Date object.
