Question

While i am setting up time Zome ,locale time zone still datepicker returning wrong time .

datepicker.timeZone = [NSTimeZone localTimeZone];

It should display like 2012-04-20 12:20
but it is displaying 2012-04-20 12:02:42 + 0000

How can i set Time Zone of India to datepicker ?

Answer 1

i think you should set your dateformatter’s Locale like below:

-(void)localDate:(NSDate*)date
{
    NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[[NSDateFormatter alloc] init] autorelease]; 
    [dateFormatter setDateFormat:@"yyyy-MM-dd"]; // set your formatter how you want
    NSDate * t = [dateFormatter dateFromString:[date description]];

    //[dateFormatter setDateStyle:NSDateFormatterMediumStyle]; //you can set date format style
    NSLocale *usLocale = [[[NSLocale alloc] initWithLocaleIdentifier:@"yourLocalidentifier"] autorelease]; 
    //you can reach your local identifier from here: [NSLocale availableLocaleIdentifiers]

    [dateFormatter setLocale:usLocale];
    NSLog(@"%@",[dateFormatter stringFromDate:t]); 
}
