Java Date Format for Locale

by 
DateFormat.getDateInstance(int,Locale)

For example:

import static java.text.DateFormat.*;

DateFormat f = getDateInstance(SHORT, Locale.ENGLISH);

Then you can use this object to format Dates:

String d = f.format(new Date());

If you actually want to know the underlying pattern (e.g. yyyy-MMM-dd) then, as you’ll get a SimpleDateFormat object back:

SimpleDateFormat sf = (SimpleDateFormat) f;
String p1 = sf.toPattern();
String p2 = sf.toLocalizedPattern();
