Wrong first day of week for culture de-AT

[Marcel Ring]

Hello,

in my project I want to use the culture de-AT which I set/load with following code:

setCulture('de-AT');
setCurrencyCode('EUR');

loadCldr(
  require('cldr-data/main/de-AT/ca-gregorian.json'),
  require('cldr-data/main/de-AT/timeZoneNames.json'),
  require('cldr-data/main/de-AT/numbers.json'),
  require('cldr-data/main/de-AT/currencies.json'),
  require('cldr-data/supplemental/numberingSystems.json'),
  require('cldr-data/supplemental/weekData.json')
);

So far everything works fine except the first day of week in DateTimePicker. It should be Monday, but defaults to Sunday.

I debugged the code responsible for getting the first day of week from culture data and it seems it should only read weekData with country, but it's reading with the whole culture (see screenshot). For english based cultures there is an "if" to slice the language part and only keep the country. I think this should be done for all cultures, not only english based ones.

Best Regards,

Marcel

Hi Marcel, 

 

Greetings from Syncfusion support. 

 

 

We have validated the reported issue in our end with provided details . And found that we can use ‘firstDayOfWeek’  property to achieve your requirement. Kindly refer the below sample and code sippet for your reference. 

 

[app.component.html] 

<ejs-datetimepicker [firstDayOfWeek]="firstDayOfWeek"></ejs-datetimepicker> 

[app.component.ts] 

export class AppComponent { 

 

    public date: Object = new Date(); 

 

    public  firstDayOfWeek: number = 1; 

 

    constructor() { 

         

    } 

 

}

Hello Deepak!

Thanks for your reply!

I don‘t want to set the first day of week on every picker I use, as this seems like a workaround to me.

I want it to correctly load the first day of week from the culture data which I provide to the syncfusion components with weekData.json.

So this should be seen as a bug report, rather than a knowledge-gap on the usage!

The screenshot from above is syncfusion code which I think doesn‘t work as expected.

Thanks in advance!

We have validated the requirement and found that it is working in generic cultures de,fr etc.. with weekdata json file , but not working for the dependent cultures de-AT,fr-CH etc.. We are currently validating this issue in our end , We will update further details within two business days (6^th,December 2021). 

 

 

Thanks,

Hi Marcel, 

  

We deeply regret for the inconvenience caused . 

  

We are facing complexity in our end where the issue occurs only for specific cultures. So we need additional time to validate the issue .So we will update the further details within two business days(8 December 2021) 

  

  

Thanks,
