aqDateTime.Time() method returning accurate time but wrong date(Dec 30 Sat 1899)

Hi, I am using TestComplete 9, and code snippet (using Jscript) that i used is to get current time is aqDateTime.Time(). But the result is as               "Sat Dec 3- 00:47:43 UTC +0530 1899" ...

Hello Mamatha,



according to TC manual this is the cause:

Here the description of method:



"...

Declaration



aqConvert.DateTimeToStr(D)

















D
[in]
Required
Date/Time
 

Result
String



The method has the following parameter:





D




The date/time value to be converted to a string. If the date part of the value is missing, it is assumed to be the “zero date”, December 30, 1899. If the time part is missing, it is not included in the resulting string.

..."



As you are using aqDateTime.Time() to fetch the time value only, there will be only time part there (see attached image and look in manual of description of aqDateTime.Time()).

This is why it will be the 30/12/1899 assumed as "zero date" for conversion method aqConvert.DateTimeToStr().



Hope this helps,



Regards,
