Hi,

Try this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"; 
                           xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark" 
                           xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx"
                           layout="vertical"
                           initialize="init(event)">
        <fx:Script>
                <![CDATA[
                        import mx.events.FlexEvent;
                        import mx.resources.IResourceManager;
                        import mx.resources.ResourceManager;
                        
                        [Bindable]
                        public var dateFormat:String;
                        [Bindable]
                        public var locale:String;
                        
                        protected function init(event:FlexEvent):void
                        {
                                var rm:IResourceManager = 
ResourceManager.getInstance();
                                locale = rm.localeChain.toString();
                                dateFormat = rm.getString("SharedResources", 
"dateFormat");
                        }
                        
                ]]>
        </fx:Script>
        <mx:DateField id="mydate" selectedDate="{new Date(2016, 6, 4, 13)}"/>
        <mx:Label text="{locale}" />
                <mx:Label text="{dateFormat}" />
</mx:Application>

It should display “en_GB” and “DD/MM/YYYY” if you can compiled with the en_GB 
locale.

Thanks,
Justin
