Hi, There are some very annoy issues in MyEclipse for Spring 2014.
Issue one: There is no way to set up locale or some thing similar to set the system generate Date/Time format in Australia format such as: dd/MM/yyyy.
Issue two: I found that I can change the property files that located in ~/WebRoot/WEB-INF/classes/bundles folder, from “date.format=MM/dd/yyyy” to “date.format=dd/MM/yyyy”. This change will make the java script calendar date format to display date format in Australia way, but all html display page (JSP), is not changeable. it still display North American format.
Issue Three. When I did the properties file change, after couple of days, MyEclipse change it back to default format again automatically. This is a very annoy design issue, it is totally not acceptable.
You product is a commercial product, it is not free version. I didn’t find any document from your website to fix it.
I am doing serious valuation on this copy of software in last two weeks. it seems work well in scaffolding generate a simple spring MVC application. But if you have date format issue, and it is not fixable, I have to give it up.
Please update me!
Cindy,
I could not replicate the issue with MyEclipse changing the property files.
If you are trying to use a specific locale different from that of your operating system, then in the myeclipse.ini you can set the -Duser.language, -Duser.region after the -vm. (Set the values according to your region, Ex : -Duser.language=de , -Duser.region=DE). You can also change the date format for short and long dates through the Control Panel of your system. Give it a try and see if it works for you.
Since this is a development related query,I suggest you cross post to development forums like stackoverflow.com to understand how the date format can be set to be picked up from the locale in Eclipse.
Can you please recheck if the property file has been automatically reset by MyEclipse ? Try changing the format and see if it resets. If you are still seeing the issue, please send us a sample project to help us replicate the issue at our end and investigate further.
Let us know how it works for you.
