1.0

Description

This property defines the timestamp from which the Time-Keyloader will start generating its keys. The property expects a Time-Pattern with constants and variable elements (which will be replaced by the corresponding values of the current date) in the locale date-format. If you don't want to use the locale format of the server, you can override the format with the Locale Format pattern of this Keyloader.

If no "Start" property is defined, the Keyloader will use the "Start" property from the parent Keyloader (if this Keyloader is encapsulate in another one). If this Keyloader is not encapsulated and no Start is defined, the Keyloader will use the current timestamp as start.

Examples

Start = "01.01.2004"

Time-Keyloader starts generating from 01.01.2004

Start = "01.01.yyyy"

Time-Keyloader starts generating from 01.01 in the current year

Start = "dd.MM.yyyy"

Time-Keyloader starts generating from today
