Hello Jeremy,

Thank you for contacting the Android team!

The cells in year mode are represented by CalendarMonthCell and in month and week mode by CalendarDayCell.

Thank you for your time and all best!

Hello Antony, thanks for your reply ! 

 

I am actually in week mode so it shoud be CalendarDayCell right ?

 

Thanks

Hello Jeremy,

Yes, and you can check further by using getCellType() to check if the cell is Date, DayName or WeekNumber.

Ok, so why it doesn't work ?

Hello Jeremy,

I confirmed that this code doesn't work indeed. It is supposed to work according to the official documentation of the keywords in the .NET platform - Reference here, but it seems that Mono or Xamarin are behaving differently. I will log this and the examples will be revisited regarding this issue.

Thank you for your feedback!

Hi,

 

As same for the  GetFormattedTime function, String doesn't work , you should use string with lowcase, and it's work. 

Like this : 

 

private string GetFormattedTime(string format, long time)
{
Calendar calendar = Calendar.Instance;
calendar.TimeInMillis = time;
DateTime dateTime = new DateTime(
calendar.Get (CalendarField.Year),
calendar.Get (CalendarField.Month) + 1,
calendar.Get (CalendarField.DayOfMonth),
calendar.Get (CalendarField.HourOfDay),
calendar.Get (CalendarField.Minute),
calendar.Get (CalendarField.Second));
return string.Format (format, dateTime);
}

I just had this issue resolved today in the event that someone else encounters this problem. This is what I was told to do:

Instead of:


if(!(calendarCell is CalendarDayCell))
{
    return;
}

CalendarDayCell calendarDayCell = (CalendarDayCell) calendarCell;
You need to use:


if (calendarCell.Class.SimpleName == "CalendarMonthCell") {
    return;
}

CalendarDayCell calendarDayCell = calendarCell.JavaCast<CalendarDayCell> ();
