Description Tom B

Build Identifier: 20110218-0911

the function myDate.extend(format) ignores the input format string and always returns timestamps in the form yyyyMMdd

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Generate EDate008.egl for Java testing. The file can be found in org.eclipse.edt.eunit.test/api.eglx_lang

2. Run the generated java program. The output shows that the specified formats are ignored and the format of the returned timestamp is always yyyyMMdd\\

e.g.

const febLeap date = "02-29-2000";
const febLeapTimeStampYDate timeStamp("yyyy") = "2000";
function runAssignmentFunction02(){@Test}
		actual=febLeap.extend("yyyy");
		LogResult.assertTimestampEqual("date to timestamp yyyy",febLeapTimeStampYDate,actual);
	end 

EDate008::runAssignmentFunction02: FAILED - date to timestamp yyyy - Failed: Expected value = '2000' Actual value = '2000-02-29'
