converting old format date in new format date

General
1

Hello,
(Mac Yosemite, Xojo 2015r3.1)
following the docs, I convert an old-format date into a new format date:

      dim d as new date
      d = mFile.creationDate//get the creation date of a file
      using xojo.core
      Dim dateValue As Text = d.SQLDateTime.ToText
      Dim dd As Date = Date.FromText(dateValue)//yellow triangle
      dim d1 as new Date(dd.SecondsFrom1970, new TimeZone(0))//yellow triangle

Running Analyze Project, I get the word “Date” in dd and d1 highlighted, along with this warning:
“Before 2014r3, this would have referred to the Date class, but now etc.”

What should I do in order to avoid such warning?
Thanks.

You can turn off any warning you don’t care to see under the Project menu -> Analysis Warnings.

Let me refrase it: what should I modify in the above code in order not to raise the warning.

The only thing you could do in the code is to stop using the new framework Date.

Fully qualify the names
In mixed code I’d do that anyway as its easy to miss the “using clause” half way through the code that switches what “Date” means

dim d as new date
d = mFile.creationDate//get the creation date of a file
Dim dateValue As Text = d.SQLDateTime.ToText
Dim dd As xojo.core.Date = xojo.core.Date.FromText(dateValue)
dim d1 as new xojo.core.Date(dd.SecondsFrom1970, new xojo.core.TimeZone(0))

@Norman: Fine. Thank you.
