Hi guys.
My version info is:
SmartClient Version: SC_SNAPSHOT-2010-12-20/LGPL Deployment (built 2010-12-20)
So, I'm using smartclient as a javascript client, and I provide a "transformRequest" callback so that I can convert to my back end API's expected format. Everything works great, except for dates. In the example I posted below, if I dip into dsRequest.data.hireDate, I expect to find something like "2007/10/22", which I can send directly to my back end, but instead I find a javascript Date object. What do I have to do to get the expected string result in dsRequest.data? Thanks much!
Here's my sample application. Examine the "transformRequest" callback to see what I'm talking about...
