How can I change the date format to DD/MM formatin Calendar Widget ?

Thanks in advance for having a look, Sachin

SmartGwt provides a static DateUtil for changing date formats.Put the following code somewhere in your application and it will change the date format through out the application

DateUtil.setShortDateDisplayFormatter(new DateDisplayFormatter() {
     public String format(Date date) {
         if(date == null) return null;
         final DateTimeFormat dateFormatter = DateTimeFormat.getFormat("DD/MM/yyyy");
         String format = dateFormatter.format(date);
         return format;
     }
 });

Take a look to the com.smartgwt.client.util.DateUtil specifically to the methods setShortDateDisplayFormat and setShortDateDisplayFormatter

This should solve your problem, according to the documentation.

put

this.setDateFormatter(DateDisplayFormat.TOEUROPEANSHORTDATE);

in constructor

@aruns is correct, however another step is need if you are using RelativeDateItem

      DateUtil.setShortDatetimeDisplayFormatter(new DateDisplayFormatter()
      {
         public String format(Date date)
         {
            if(date == null)
            {
               return null;
            }
            else
            {
               final DateTimeFormat dateFormatter = DateTimeFormat.getFormat(DATE_FORMAT);
               return dateFormatter.format(date);
            }

         }
      });

      DateUtil.setDateParser(new DateParser()
      {
         public Date parse(String dateString)
         {
            final DateTimeFormat format = DateTimeFormat.getFormat(DATE_FORMAT);
            return format.parse(dateString);
         }
      });

The DateFormat is defined in the GWT documentation
