[Qt-interest] Internationalization and QDate::toString

[Constantin Makshin]

QDate class is meant to represent a specific date, so
QDate::toString() works correctly.

To get just day of week or month names alone, use QDate::*DayName()
and QDate::*MonthName() (I wrote asterisks because there're 2 variants
of each function — for short and long names).
