using Date object with constructor

[MarkJ2]

In the program I am writing, I would like to create an instance of an object that will allow anyone to pass in a date (year,month,date,hour,minutes) as a Date object.

I am able to create an instance of an object that takes the parameters of year,month, and date and passes them to another constructor, but I am not sure how to do what I am describing in my first paragraph.

Thanks,

Mark

hi

i'm not sure if there is a constructor to accept date object but there's a foolproof method. in ur own constructor, accept a date object. then inside the constructor get the hours, mins, secs whatever and pass it to the consructot of original date object.

class mydate extends Date
{
public mydate(Date d)
{
super(d.getHours(),d.getMinutes(),...);
}
}

then create an instance with ur own class

mydate d = new mydate(dateobject);


catch my point?

Karthik.
