Date Format dd/MM/yyyy?

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am executing RFC app. My requirement is tht I need to give the date in dd/MM/yyyy format and in table it should be displayed in the same format. By using simple type i can give in the format as i need. But in the table, its coming like MM/dd/yyyy format. I need to change this. In backend, Its coming dd/MM/yyyy only. Why it change while displaying in the webdynpro table? Help me out to rectify this...

did you restart browser after changing language?

try changing system language as sunitha suggested. but normally it should be effected by changing the browser language only.

try checking Dynpro Application properties, usually that would set as English US (OS)

Hi,

Try

Format formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("dd/MMM/yyyy");

String s = formatter.format(date);

OR

Assuming your context attribute name is Date

IWDAttributeInfo attributeInfo = wdContext.getNodeInfo().getAttribute("Date");

attributeInfo.getDataAttribute().getScalarType().format("dd/MM/yyyy");

Hi Sathish,

In the JCO connections you use to connect to backend change the language to English(United Kingdom).
