Error description

  • Problem Description:
    
    WCM Date values for WCM Tags that allow date format to be
    passed, like WorkflowCmpnt tag, have non configurable default
    
    When customer wishes to have all dates displayed in same manner,
    has to find all component tags and
    change.
    
    If a default value is desired, customer can add to the
    WCMConfigService.properties file the property:
    
    date.cmpnt.defaultformat
    
    And set to one of the configurable value listed in the
    Infocenter for date formats.
    
    For example:
    
    date.cmpnt.defaultform=dd/MM/yy
    
    After the change is made, any WCM component tags that do not
    specify a format will default to the
    value in the WCMConfigService.properties.  If the value is
    invalid, will default to the original
    default.
