Notes
To activate this function JCLDateTime must appear after SysUtils in the uses clause or it must be explicitly denoted as JCLDateTime.FormatDateTime. The help for SysUtils.FormatDateTime does not state that unrecognized characters in the format string are passed unchanged. If this feature was erroneously used, JCLDateTime.FormatDateTime is not 100% compatible, as it defines additional tokens.
