Whoa!  I'm impressed you have the time to decompile, and analyse the C+
+ code of CF5.0.

(Because if you are not analysing that release or earlier then your
argument with respect to the code being identical is irrelevant.  Both
functions pre-date the move to Java. And if you are looking at CF8
byte code you might consider that the addition of locale for
dateformat() may be the only reason lsdateformat() has been
refactored. It might also help to understand that i18n was a *little*
bit harder to implement in c++ for the nineties than it is in Java for
the late naughties. I'm sure you're right though -- all the engineers
I've met on the CF teams over the years have been thoughtless morons
(NOT!))
