how to get particular data from jsonarray?

Question

I want to get the CreateDate value from xml file the xml file is like this way.

<d:CreateDate m:type="Edm.DateTime">2012-03-18T15:11:30.403</d:CreateDate>

I created JSONObject as

JSONObject json=new WCFServices().getWhatsNew();//i get the json object WCFServices class.
JSONArray whatsnew= json.getJSONArray("d");
String CreateDate= c.getString("CreateDate");

if i try to print the value it gives me output as:

 /Date(1330041600000)/

I want to get the value as like 2012-03-18T15:11:30.403 how to get it ?

cast xml to json first. then get the JsonArray. After getting array, then get the JsonObject from that array by placing Date — Hamza Waqas

just want to make sure that output of 2012-03-18T15:11:30.403 is (1330041600000)? or you just post example value? — Never Quit

So, you're not getting the right output as /Date(1300....)/. First you need to get the exact value, then I think you need to use SimpleDateFormat class and then pass your timestamp to it it will make it to datetime. — Hamza Waqas

I think your output is in epoch date format. So you need to convert it to normal date time. Try this for it..

public String normal_date_time(String epoch_date)
    {
      try
      {
         long epoch = Long.parseLong( epoch_date );

         String dateFormat = "dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm:ss.SSS";
         SimpleDateFormat formatter = new SimpleDateFormat(dateFormat);     
         Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
         calendar.setTimeInMillis(epoch);
         String formated_date =  formatter.format(calendar.getTime()); 
         Log.d("Date", formated_date);
         return formated_date;
      }
      catch (Exception e) 
      {
        // TODO: handle exception
          return null;
      }

You can find more about DateFormat by following links, It will help you to retrieve output in different formats.
