pm286 The pattern syntax is mostly compatible with java.text.SimpleDateFormat - time zone names cannot be parsed and a few more symbols are supported. All ASCII letters are reserved as pattern letters, which are defined as follows: Symbol Meaning Presentation Examples ------ ------- ------------ ------- G era text AD C century of era (>=0) number 20 Y year of era (>=0) year 1996 x weekyear year 1996 w week of weekyear number 27 e day of week number 2 E day of week text Tuesday; Tue y year year 1996 D day of year number 189 M month of year month July; Jul; 07 d day of month number 10 a halfday of day text PM K hour of halfday (0~11) number 0 h clockhour of halfday (1~12) number 12 H hour of day (0~23) number 0 k clockhour of day (1~24) number 24 m minute of hour number 30 s second of minute number 55 S fraction of second number 978 z time zone text Pacific Standard Time; PST Z time zone offset/id zone -0800; -08:00; America/Los_Angeles ' escape for text delimiter '' single quote literal ' The count of pattern letters determine the format. Text: If the number of pattern letters is 4 or more, the full form is used; otherwise a short or abbreviated form is used if available. Number: The minimum number of digits. Shorter numbers are zero-padded to this amount. Year: Numeric presentation for year and weekyear fields are handled specially. For example, if the count of 'y' is 2, the year will be displayed as the zero-based year of the century, which is two digits. Month: 3 or over, use text, otherwise use number. Zone: 'Z' outputs offset without a colon, 'ZZ' outputs the offset with a colon, 'ZZZ' or more outputs the zone id. Zone names: Time zone names ('z') cannot be parsed. Any characters in the pattern that are not in the ranges of ['a'..'z'] and ['A'..'Z'] will be treated as quoted text. For instance, characters like ':', '.', ' ', '#' and '?' will appear in the resulting time text even they are not embraced within single quotes. DateTimeFormat is thread-safe and immutable, and the formatters it returns are as well. *
