Date and Calendar

Most locales use the standard Gregorian calendar and a set number of date formats. These "default choices" for date formats are available for display by using the EnumDateFormats function. There are other locales which require special considerations when creating a complete list of format choices. Some of these require text strings to be inserted within the date format string, others require a completely different method of computation of the values. These special requirements are addressed by the addition of new LCTYPE and CALTYPE values.

Each locale identifier has a default calendar type associated with it. A locale identifier can also have an alternate calendar type, which can be set using the LOCALE_IOPTIONALCALENDAR type for this locale.
