EGL tutorial for DataItems V6 - date issues

I am working my way through the V6 EGL tutorial and noticed that
code for a date results in a missing year. Note - this is tutorial code
right from the V6 application and not my code.

For example. The following code is supposed to generate a web page with
a date formatted as specified. When I run the actual code, and change
the date from 10/01/1952 to 10/02/1952, the page referehses and the date
changes to 00/02/1952.

Is there any kind of known bug in EGL date handling to account for this?


dataItem dateTest char(10) {displayName = "Test date field", dateFormat
= "mm/dd/yyyy", value = "10/01/1952"} end



package pagehandlers;

import data.*;

PageHandler DataItemTest {view="DataItemTest.jsp",
onPageLoadFunction=onPageLoad}

//Variables

inputChar charTest;

outputChar charTest;

inputDate dateTest;

outputDate dateTest;

inputCurrency numericCurrencyTest;

outputCurrency numericCurrencyTest;

inputBoolean booleanTest;

outputBooleanMessage char(45);

//Function definitions

Function onPageLoad()

End

Function moveTestValues();

outputChar = inputChar;

outputDate = inputDate;

outputCurrency = inputCurrency;

if (inputBoolean == "Y")

outputBooleanMessage = "Check box is checked. True returned.";

else

outputBooleanMessage = "Check box is not checked. False returned.";

End

End

End
