Error with date picker in Jira 8

[Holger Schimanski]

To set or edit the release date, Version Manager for Jira plugin uses AUI date picker.

Because of a bug in AUI 8 which is part of Jira 8, AUI date picker is not correctly working.

Fixing this by the AUI team, needs a fix in AUI 8, which likely will not be updated soon in any Jira 8 maintenance release.

Therefor an alternative date picker needs to be implemented.

Investigating to use the same date picker as using in Jira Create Issue dialog for Due Date or in other situations in Jira. This date picker is a customized version of DHTML date picker.

No official documentation exists, so therefor some investigation is needed.

Some documentation here

• DHTML website
• J-Tricks
• Atlassian Community
• system-webresources-plugin.xml
• Calendar.setup.js
• worklog-edit.vm
• edit-datepicker.vm
