Setting Mock field and own value
The Date picker updates the own value and the mock if it can, when:
- When the Date picker is rendered.
- When a selection is made.
- An external message tells it to.
Validation
The Date picker doesn't validate itself.
Sensor Events
The Date picker doesn't send out sensor events.
External Messages
The Date picker listens to all the basic messages.
- Set Form: Takes the messages value and sets it as the selected date, saves it to Mock and updates the own value. Note: The messages value should be in the format of the Date picker. If not the setting of the date can result in undesired outcomes.
- Clear/Reset Form: Clears the selection to empty, clears the mock and the own value.
