Parameters:

  • date: Date - the newly selected date. If the selection is about to be cleared, an empty string
  • oldDate: Date - the previously selected date
  • byClick: boolean - defines whether the change happened because of a click on a date or on the "today" or "clear" control - true, or due to an API call - false
