Hi the Conversion of String to Date is not possible here..
I search and use several methods but the error can not change..
here the date format is var q and convert that to formatedDate that is String
then the String convert into util date..
SearchDate is from method parameter and the value of SearchDate is "Thu Aug 29 00:00:00 IST 2013"
var q: Date = SearchDate
var dateStr = q.toString()
var formatter: DateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("E MMM dd HH:mm:ss Z yyyy")
var dat = formatter.parse(dateStr)
var cal: Calendar = Calendar.getInstance()
cal.setTime(dat)
var formatedDate = cal.get(Calendar.DATE) + "-" + (cal.get(Calendar.MONTH) + 1) + "-" + cal.get(Calendar.YEAR)
println("formatedDate : " + formatedDate)
val date = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm").parse(dateStr)// Error Occured Here..
the error is
Exception in thread "main" java.text.ParseException: Unparseable date: "Thu Aug 29 00:00:00 IST 2013" at java.text.DateFormat.parse(Unknown Source)
please share your answers ..
You're trying to parse "E MMM dd HH:mm:ss Z yyyy"
formatted date string as "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm"
formatted one, in this line:
val date = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm").parse(dateStr)
No wonder it fails.
Maybe you took the wrong date format for second SimpleDateFormat
instance by mistake? Or maybe you're passing wrong parameter to parse()
?
edit
It looks like you actually wanted to call:
val date = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm").format(dat)
