dayName

dayName(): String;

The dayName method is defined by the current locale of the user. The dayName method of the Date primitive type returns the name of the day of the week (represented by the date value of the receiver) as a string; for example, Tuesday.

If you do not define the EnhancedLocaleSupport parameter in the [JadeEnvironment] section of the JADE initialization file on the database node or you set it to false, inconsistent results could be returned to the application server when running in JADE thin client mode and there are locale overrides, as all overrides on the application server are suppressed if enhanced locale support is not enabled. Formatting of locale data is done on the application server, based on the locale of the corresponding presentation client.

For an example of the use of the dayName method, see the Date primitive type day method.
