Visual LANSA Forum

Hi everybody,

Using Material Design, the datepicker display the selected date using the format « ShortDay, ShortMonth DayNum »

In France we do not use this date format, how can we have the date in « ShortDay. DayNum ShortMonth. » format?
Best regards,
Romain

Just a hunch but is the date format from the Android device system settings?

Hi,

In your LANSA installation , move to this directory : ....\X_WIN95\X_LANSA\web\vl\lansa_14_2_0_13\locale\
and edit the locale-fr.json file (for French) , change the settings , e,g,

"dateFormat": "dd/MM/yyyy",
"dateLongFormat": "DDD, MMMM D, YYY",
"dateShortFormat": "DDD, MMMM D",
"timeFormat": "HH:mm:ss",
"startOfWeek": "Lundi",

If you run the English version, you will need to change the locale-en.json , etc.
Also make sure your IDE is set to the correct country , language iso code for each language in each partition

Hi Theo,

I do not have the directory ...\vl\lansa_14_2_0_13\ , which EPC do you use ?
I have tried to change the locale-fr.json in the directory \lansa_14_2_1_0\locale but nothing change: i have the same behaviour.

Hi Romain

We had the same problem with sp2. It's not only the locale-fr.json which has an influence to the date.
Please check for French the lpcmnfra.bnd in the X_Lansa/execute Directory

Thanks Dominique but that's OK, the file is OK on VL.

This not solves my issue, do you think I need to made an enhancement request?

Hi,

The format should indeed come from the locale file, exactly like Theo said

If you're running in the FRA language, make sure your Partition has 'fr' as the ISO language code for the FRA language. This is how the web page knows which locale file to use.

If the ISO language code is empty, fill it in. Note that the web page won't know about it until it is recompiled, as the language to ISO mapping gets put into the generated HTML.

If you can't get it working, yes, why wouldn't you contact support, thats what they're there for....

Danny.

I have asked to the support who has confirmed that it is hardcoded so It has been accepted and logged as an enhancement.
