Clear date field value

SteveLettau

I'm working with an attribute value of field type DATE. I can successfully utilize a DatePicker to edit the field, however I'd also like the functionality to delete the value. I can provide the same functionality on a TEXT field by sending an empty string. For the DATE field, I'm assuming I need to pass something like a nil or NULL value to the field, however this is not working. Ideas?

These doesn't work:

[editFeature.attributes setValue:nil forKey:@SOURCE_DATE];  ...  [editFeature.attributes setValue:NULL forKey:@SOURCE_DATE];  ...  [editFeature.attributes setValue:@"" forKey:@SOURCE_DATE];

Steve,

You can set NULL value in the DATE field like this...

[editFeature.attributes setValue:[NSNull null] forKey:@SOURCE_DATE];

Hope this helps!

Nimesh, I've run into a problem since upgrading my iOS SDK to 10.1.1. Now I cannot clear out dates using setAttribute:[NSNull null]. Also, when adding features through my app, all date fields are defaulting to January 1, 1970.

I've tried the new setAttributeToNullForKey: but that didn't work either.

Any idea what could be happening with my date fields after upgrade to 10.1.1?

Thanks, Steve

AGSGraphic's setAttributeToNullForKey should work. I just re-tested it and it works like a charm.

I may be missing something. I can use setAttributeToNullForKey, but instead of setting the value to Null, it reverts to 1/1/1970. To add some more info, I'm using ArcSDE 10.1 on SQL Server 2012.

To add to the confusion, I can add a feature in ArcGIS Desktop and the date field defaults to NULL, but when I add (or edit) the feature through my iOS app, the date gets set to 1/1/1970. This wasn't the case with iOS SDK 2.3, it appeared when I upgraded to 10.1.

I'm attaching a small screen shot from ArcCatalog to show the issue.

Please intercept request/response from your app to server for further investigation. Do you see null is being sent to server from your app?

I did and as far as I can tell, it's null. There's definitely no indication of 1/1/1970. I've logged an incident with technical support and will await word from them. Thanks, Steve
