Date format not updated for QEA/ QEAX repositories
« on: November 14, 2023, 11:02:35 pm »
Hi,

When I change the regional formatting of windows in Time and date settings, the modified and created date for diagrams and objects for QEA and QEAX repositories does not change according to the local time format. However, for EADB and EAPX this change is reflected immediately.

Do we need to separately handle such time format changes for QEA and QEAX in EA?

What do you mean by "handle time format changes"?

I'm guessing you're referring to a SQLite file database, because SQLite is the only supported repository type that doesn't support a datetime data type.

If that's the case, the answer is that it's not intended to be saved the the local format. It needs to be readable if the file is transferred between systems, including if they have a different locale.
