Re: [Subclipse-users] datetime format in team history view

Hi

Thanks for the reply mark.

The problem is this: the datetime format used in the history display is
not the same format that I configure under windows in the Regional
Settings control panel.

I suspect that subclipse is using SimpleDateFormat(DateFormat.SHORT),
which does not (currently) correctly check the regional settings under
windows.
There is a bug logged in Sun's bugtracker for this, here:
http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4514389

From the comments in the eclipse bug I logged, it appears that the CVS
view is using ICU4J to format the datetime, which appears to do the
right thing.

Regards,
   Noel
