Are local and cloud definitions of built in functions compatible?

Posted 10 years ago
CloudDeploy[Column[{
   "Static date:",
   DateString[],
   Manipulate[   Column[{"Dynamic date:", DateString[], x}], {x, 0, 10, 1}]
   }]
 ]

enter image description here

Static date is just a string sent to cloud, DateString[] in Manipulate has to be produced by Cloud.

Why are they different?

Kuba,
If i run $DateStringFormat in my desktop kernel i get

{"DateTimeShort"}

if i run CloudEvaluate[$DateStringFormat] i get

{"DayShort", " ", "MonthName", " ", "Year", " ", "Hour12Short", ":", "Minute", " ", "AMPMLowerCase"}

Is this an answer to your question?

Yes, thanks. Shouldn't default settings be consistent?

POSTED BY: Kuba Podkalicki

The documentation doesn't seem to guarantee a default value for it, but I'm not sure why they would be different by default except maybe for different languages.

Eitherway, I've reported this in case it needs to be fixed or clarified in the documentation.
