Thank you for all the replies. But due to:
"You can't unless you use JNI or JDirect. Java's date formats are tied 
to its locales, and those are defined separately from the operating 
system's locales. That allows Java to work well on platforms with 
insufficient built-in locale support, but it does fall short in a few 
areas like this one where the operating system supports more options 
than Java does."
And for now I didn't find any parameter to adjust the settings for my 
need within eclispe I go for different solution.
As japanese date version is in ISO I start eclipse the the jp 
user.language parameter.

Thanks.

Regs. Peter.
