[daisy] date format function in query language

[Lieven Doclo]

Hi,

We're currently developing an application that stores historical data in 
Daisy. The dates are stored in DATE fields.
Our problem lies when we start to query for dates: all dates returned by 
the query are displayed dd-mm-yy. When there's a date like 12/05/1924, 
it's displayed as 12/05/24, which in turn is converted back to 
12/05/2024 in Java.
When using dates earlier than 1/1/1900, as there is no way to find out 
what the date was as the query returns for example 01/02/15 (is it 1815, 
1915 or 2015?).

Is is possible to add a function to the query language that allows the 
formatting of date fields (something like format($datefield, 'dd-mm-yyyy'))?

Kind regards,
