<p>Formats a date into a date/time string. </p>
<p>Subclasses should implement this method. </p>
<pre class="fragment"> @param cal Calendar set to the date and time to be formatted
into a date/time string. When the calendar type is
different from the internal calendar held by this
DateFormat instance, the date and the time zone will
be inherited from the input calendar, but other calendar
field values will be calculated by the internal calendar.
@param appendTo Output parameter to receive result.
Result is appended to existing contents.
@param posIter On return, can be used to iterate over positions
of fields generated by this format call. Field values
are defined in UDateFormatField. Can be NULL.
@param status error status.
@return Reference to 'appendTo' parameter.
