[Gambas-user] ValueBox can't set to dd-mm-yyyy

[adjie]

Thank a lot Benoit,
Any example to environment variable and where to change the current locale ?
sorry I'm very new in gambas. I'm just start converting my vb project to
gambas. In vb, I just change the regional setting in control panel and it
will affect to the vb default format or in other case I can use dateformat
function to change the format inside my code. Is there any property just to
change the format or can't you add it:) ?

The date format is given by the LANG & LC_* environment variable. KDE uses
its 
own system, don't know why. Maybe they found the GNU libc system too
limited?

Now please explain why you don't what to use the date format of your current

locale?

A bug in gb.gtk for sure - I will check later. At the moment, I'm in the 64 
bits stuff!
