Debug.Log applies formatting for date and time in the DateTime struct when using string interpolation

Scripting

-

Reproduction steps:

  1. Open attached “Debug.Log” project
  2. Open “Sample Scene” scene
  3. Enter the Play mode

Expected result: Two dates in the Console have the same formatting
Actual result: Two dates in the Console don’t have the same formatting

Reproducible with: 2020.3.40f1, 2021.3.11f1, 2022.1.19f1, 2022.2.0b10, 2023.1.0a13

Reproduced on: Windows 10

  1. Resolution Note:

    This is by design, `Debug.Log(...)` with any object that is `IFormattable` will automatic be displayed using an `InvariantCulture` while string interpolation will by default use the current culture.

    The workaround is to explicit specify the culture you want or use `FormattableString.Invariant()` for your string interpolations to get them to display them in the same way as `Debug.Log()`

    For example `Debug.Log(FormattableString.Invariant($"{DateTime.Now}"));`
