dateTemplate

The template for formatting one date and time value.

Declaration

var dateTemplate: String! { get set }

Discussion

Use this string to specify a custom fixed format for each of the date and time values. The string you specify is based on the Unicode Technical Standard #35, which uses characters to represent the day, time, year, hour, minute, and other pieces of date or time information.

If you do not assign a value to this string, the formatter object automatically updates the string based on the values in the dateStyle and timeStyle properties.

For information about how to define a custom formatting string, see Date Formatters in Data Formatting Guide.
