localMoment - Could not find symbol?

BobMiles

Hi,

I am trying to use Time.Gregroian.localMoment() according to the API Reference. Here is my Code:

var options = {
    :year   => 2018,
    :month  => 2,
    :day    => 24,
    :hour   => 0,
    :min    => 12
};

var when = Time.Gregorian.moment(options);
var where = new Pos.Location({
    :latitude  =>  loc[0],
    :longitude => loc[1],
    :format    => :radians,
});

var local = Time.Gregorian.localMoment(when, where);

I am importing "using Toybox.Time as Time;" but I tried to import Gregroian directly and it's always the same error:

Error: Symbol Not Found Error
Details: Could not find symbol 'localMoment'

I'm on SDK 4.1.2, developing for target API Level 4.0.

Is localMoment working at all?

Thank you so much,

Bob

    HA! The example WRONG!

    a) It requires (where, when) not (when, where).

    b) it doesn't take a Gregorian.moment as the when argument because a Gregorian.moment is not a Number. It has to be cast as a number with .value() (also incorrectly explained in the "moment" documentation.)

    This works:

    if (Gregorian has :localMoment){
		var options = {
			:year   => 2018,
			:month  => 2,
			:day    => 24,
			:hour   => 0,
			:min    => 12 
		};
		var when = Gregorian.moment(options);
		
		var where = new Position.Location({
			:latitude  =>  38.85391,
			:longitude => -94.79630,
			:format    => :degrees,
		});

		var local = Gregorian.localMoment(where, when.value());
		var info = Gregorian.info(local, Time.FORMAT_SHORT);
	}

     but this doesn't:

    var local = Gregorian.localMoment(where, when);
    It's now working for me in my app with
    var mLocalMoment = Gregorian.localMoment( simulator.mLocation, timeSecs);
    where timeSecs is a Number.
    The documentation fails to specify an initializing Constructor for the LocalMoment and the author of the example got it hopelessly wrong.
    GRRRR :-(
