Description

When specifying the "type" attribute of Picker to Ti.UI.PICKER_TYPE_DATE The error shown is name of the Picker is not defined. For eg if my Alloy app says index.xml =========== index.tss =========== "#datepicker":{ type: Ti.UI.PICKER_TYPE_DATE } The error shown is Reference variable not defined "datepicker" I fixed the issue by correcting the type mentioned to "Titanium.UI.PICKER_TYPE_DATE" If only the error message would have been appropriate, it would have been much easier for me to fix it.

Hello [~mpmiranda]! ,

Test Case

index.xml

   <Alloy>
     <Window class="container">
       <Picker id ="datepicker"></Picker>
     </Window>
   </Alloy>

index.tss

   ".container": {
   	backgroundColor:"black"
   }
   "#datepicker": { 
   	type: Ti.UI.PICKER_TYPE_DATE 
   	//type: Titanium.UI.PICKER_TYPE_DATE //Both works as expected.
   }

Thanks
