I am on the iPhone so its similar to the Leopard environment except
whats deprecated on Leopard is simply not available on the iPhone. In
most places of our code we can use the built in styles of
NSDateFormatter simply. But in one place I need to know if the user is
setup for AM/PM or 24 hours or whatnot. An NSDateFormatter doesn't
work for us here.
All the docs I find on the iPhone just send me back to
NSDateFormatter. Now why does NSDateFormatter not work? Because when I
need to get and draw a separate shorthand for say "5pm" or "17:00"
NSDateFormatter does not give me the ability to do that unless I
already know if the user is using AM/PM or 24 hour formats.
The best I can find is perhaps to try and use NSDateFormatter, then
get the dateFormat. Then try to see if its using HH or hh. But that
feels like using a jackhammer to open a nut. It seems like there has
to be some simple way to simply get this info. Help?
