How can i format a string like "Fri Oct 17 00:00:00 +0200 2003" to a simple date string like Fri Oct 17 2003?
Is there any easy solution?

A:
Yes, use the NSDateFormatter to parse the first into an NSDate and then use another NSDateFormatter to write out that NSDate in the second format.

Or the same `NSDateFormatter` with it's `dateFormat` changed.

But how to handle "+0200"? Something like this?[dateFormat setDateFormat:@"EEE MMM d hh:mm:ss +0200 YYYY"];

You can find a list of the date format specifiers here: Unicode Date Formats
