I am having a problem with the javascript date object, which is returning the wrong date. For instance, javascript returns:

Whereas the max date object (correctly) returns:

Methods toLocaleString, getUTCDate, etc., all return the wrong date.

I am having a problem with the javascript date object, which is returning the wrong date. For instance, javascript returns:
Thu Apr 05 2007 16:22:51 GMT+1344 (PDT)

Whereas the max date object (correctly) returns:
Apr 6, 2007 16:22:51

// date test
function bang(){
	var testdate = new Date();
	post (testdate.toString(), "n");
}

Methods toLocaleString, getUTCDate, etc., all return the wrong date. 

Thanks,

I am using javascript as a main tool to generate my MAX/MSP patches. Can anybody please tell me how to delete a file by using MAX/MSP? Is there any methods associated with javascript or any of the objects in MAX? I am using MAC environment.

Run the shell command 'rm' through the 'shell' external, available from:

If it's a quicktime file, it can be deleted by sending the message "kill" to a jit.qt.movie object into which the file has been loaded.

Thank you for your email. I copied the shell.mxo file to 'external' folder and modfied max-objectmappings.txt and max-objectlist.txt (in 'init' folder) as mentioned in the MAX documentation.

I added the following lines to the aforementioned files respectively.

Now, when I run MAX/MSP, I am getting 'shell' from the object list, but the object created is not having any input or output. Do I need to do anything other modification other than those mentioned above to get it right? Or, is there anything wrong with the modification that I did? Hope you can help me.

NB: I am trying to delete some '.txt' files that I created at the end of the program.

If you're having problems with shell (I never messed with the 

objectmappings file, just stuck the object in the searchpath, & it 

works fine) you can also do it with an mxj -- here's the code for 

        declareInlets(new int [] {DataTypes.MESSAGE});

        declareOutlets(NO_OUTLETS);

    public void delete (String fname);

    public void anything (String s, Atom[] args) {

If you're having problems with shell (I never messed with the  
objectmappings file, just stuck the object in the searchpath, & it  
works fine) you can also do it with an mxj -- here's the code for  
[mxj killer]:

	public killer() {
		declareInlets(new int []  {DataTypes.MESSAGE});
		declareOutlets(NO_OUTLETS);
		}

	public void anything (String s, Atom[] args)  {
		if (exists(s)) {
		s.delete();
		}
	}
}
