Change mm/dd/yyyy to dd/mm/yyyy when selecting date via dateSelector??

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

i have attribute of date type that has been binded to input field in a web dynpro Java application. when application is executed user can select a date via DateSelector that appears automatically.

Problem is after the date has been selected input field is populated in mm/dd/yyyy format ( ex 03/28/2008). My client wants that to be changed . It must read 28/03/2008 (dd/mm/yyyy).

I tried creating simple type using base type Date and setting representation dd/MM/yyyy however that does NOT work!!

Hi,

Simple type with representation dd/MM/yyyy works for me.

Here is what I have done.

Create a simple type

Name :testDateFormat

package : com.test

Dictionary : Local Dictionary

Built-In-Type : Date

In the Representation Tab :

Format : dd/MM/yyyy

In the WD view created a context of type : com.test.testDateFormat and assinged the context to the inputfield

Now I see date format dd/MM/yyyy, make sure the u specify the correct format.
