PeopleCode Time formatting

Had a record with a Time field, took a little while to figure out how to format the value since you can't pass a Time value directly into the builtin DateTimeToLocalizedString function.


/* &time is a record field defined as Time */
Local datetime &dateTime = DateTime6(1900, 1, 1, Hour(&time), Minute(&time), Second(&time));
Local string &formattedTime = DateTimeToLocalizedString(&dateTime, "h:mm a");
