It's defined somewhere but not using this string and I'm unaware of the API
where it's defined natively. This is what we do for native date formatting
(Objective-C code) in our native implementation:
#ifndef CN1_USE_ARC
NSDateFormatter *formatter = [[[NSDateFormatter alloc] init] autorelease];
#else
NSDateFormatter *formatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
#endif
if (currentLocale != NULL) {
formatter.locale = currentLocale;
} else {
formatter.locale = cn1DeviceLocale();
}
NSDate* date = [NSDate dateWithTimeIntervalSince1970:(d / 1000)];
[formatter setDateStyle:NSDateFormatterMediumStyle];
JAVA_OBJECT o = fromNSString(CN1_THREAD_STATE_PASS_ARG [formatter
stringFromDate:date]);
POOL_END();
return o;
