How to Convert mmddyyyy into date format in dataweave application/xml

I am converting string "11232017" (mmddyyyy) into date format in dataweave. If I give the output as json or java, it is converting correctly but application/xml is converting it into yyyy-mm-dd.

code:

%output application/xml
%var a ="12182013"

k:((a as :date {format : "MMddyyyy"} )

For printing in json or xml it is always better to put it in string format not the Date object. You can either convert your string to date then again date to string using required format or have your string with the required format.
