init] returning date an hour in the past?

Question

When I call

NSDate *now = [[NSDate alloc] init]; 

in order to get the current date and time, I check it with:

NSLog(@\"Dat         


        

Answer 1

Use NSDateFormatter to localize the date:

NSLog(@"%@",[NSDateFormatter localizedStringFromDate:[NSDate date] dateStyle:NSDateFormatterShortStyle timeStyle:NSDateFormatterShortStyle]);
