Hi,

In my Blackberry application I want to change date format as I am changing the device date format.

How to get the device date format? Is there any direct API to get the same?

net.rim.device.api.i18n.SimpleDateFormat

Thanx for your reply.
But how can i get the device date pattern using SimpleDateFormat?
Is there any code snap available?

I guess I don't understand your question. If you just want to format a date using the default system format, ie as selected by the user when they set up their locale, currency format etc, then use net.rim.device.api.i18n.DateFormat.getInstance(int style)

If you're asking how to find out what that particular format is exactly, I have to ask why you care? The DataFormat and its children very nicely hide that complexity from you.

Thanx hrbuckley for your reply.
Your first point is correct & it will help me.
