I have a website which supplies date in 2 formats: 28th June 2009 or June 2009.
Now I would like to convert both of these into the same format yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss using MySQL and Java.
SimpleDateFormat gives an error: "Unparsable Date". What's the solution?
What about June 2009 as you can not say its a date you need to make it a date by adding a day in this month-year format. Ex.. add first day of month here and make it 1 June 2009 then parse it in desired format.
import java.io.IOException;
import java.text.ParseException;
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
import java.util.Date;
public class Test {
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException, ParseException
{
String dateStr = "28 June 2009";
SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd hh:mm:ss");
System.out.println(sdf.format(new Date(dateStr)));
}
}
Date(str) is deprecated you can use Calendar for that. And 28th is and string just remove th from it and move further.
