Interface TemplateDateModel

All Superinterfaces:
TemplateModel
All Known Implementing Classes:
DateModel, SimpleDate
public interface TemplateDateModel extends TemplateModel
"date", "time" and "date-time" template language data types: corresponds to Date. Contrary to Java, FreeMarker distinguishes date (no time part), time and date-time values.

Objects of this type should be immutable, that is, calling getAsDate() and getDateType() should always return the same value as for the first time.
