NSDateFormatter help

Show all headers | View raw

I've got an NSString that contains a date/time. An actual example of
this is:

1230 UT 09 Mar 2011


I'm trying to get this into an NSDate object, and I *thought* that the
formatter should be: "HHmm z dd MMM yyyy" but this always returns a bad
date. I've tried various z's (up to four) and I've tried using a few
other things but something isn't right.

What *should* the formatter be?

(this is my first real attempt at using NSDateFormatter so I'm probably
doing something silly)
