Example of formatting display of locale-sensitive data yields incorrect result
(Tools and Utilities guide)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: DERBY-752
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-752
Project: Derby
Type: Bug
Components: Documentation
Versions: 10.0.2.0, 10.0.2.1, 10.1.1.0, 10.2.0.0, 10.1.2.0, 10.1.1.1,
10.1.1.2, 10.1.2.1
Environment: All
Reporter: John H. Embretsen
Priority: Trivial
While browsing through the "HTML Files" version of the Tools and Utilities
Guide in connection with DERBY-391, I discovered a small, but rather silly
bug...
On the page entitled "Formatting display of locale-sensitive data",
http://db.apache.org/derby/docs/dev/tools/ctoolsijtools90477.html, there is an
example showing how "localizeddisplay on;" affects the display format of
"VALUES CURRENT_DATE;" in ij (in an en_US locale) :
----------- QUOTE START -----------
ij> VALUES CURRENT_DATE;
1
----------
2001-08-06
1 row selected
ij> localizeddisplay on;
ij> VALUES CURRENT_DATE;
1
------------------
September 6, 2001
1 row selected
----------- QUOTE END -----------
I don't know how "2001-08-06" ended up as "September 6, 2001", but I hope this
is just a Doc bug ;) (The result should obviously be "August 6, 2001").
Certainly, "2005-12-12" correctly ends up as "December 12, 2005", using ij
version 10.1.2.1...
I guess a committer who has checked out the doc repository could easily fix
this by changing one character only:
From: 2001-08-06
To: 2001-09-06
