-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 All,
Sorry for the off-topic post. Does anyone know if I can get the pattern for a DateFormat object? If I've got a SimpleDateFormat object, I know I can call toPattern() and get a String describing the pattern. Is there a way to do something similar? For historical reasons, date formats are expected to be Strings in our application instead of DateFormat objects. I'm re-factoring the way that date formats are stored in our database and I need to support "default" date formats. For instance, we have a "short_date" date format, and if there's no format matching that key in the database, we want to use DateFormat.getDateFormat(DateFormat.SHORT, currentLocale). In order to do that with my existing code, I need to get the format string from that DateFormat object. Anyone know how to do that? (It looks like DateFormat.getDateInstance(DateFormat.SHORT) actually returns a SimpleDateFormat object... anyone think it's a bad idea to bet on that?)
