Seems like the method it ends up using, Date>>printDate:format:on:, currently ignores the formatArray given and just prints using YYYY-MM-DD.
But there's a ExrendedDatePrinter class that implements the same method and does what you expect.
I found it using ctrl-m when selecting the expression and looking at the implementations, but I haven't used it to be sure.
I have been using this to format dates:
printFormat: #(3 2 1 $/ 1 1 2)
which goes like:
printFormat: formatArray
"Answer a String describing the receiver using the argument formatArray."
^ String
new: 16
streamContents: [ :aStream | self printOn: aStream format: formatArray ]
But i am unclear on how to assemble this formatArray to get a date like:
mm/dd/yyyy
any ideas?
Thanks!
