I can get the output as Wed May 11 15:36:08 IST 2016
, but how do I convert the date to a string with the required format?
Required format is: 12-05-2016 16:05:08 pm
What I tried is,
public class Test {
public static void main(String args[]) throws ParseException{
String epoche="1462961108000";
Long initialLogTime = Long.valueOf(epoche);
Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
calendar.setTimeInMillis(initialLogTime);
Calendar fromDateTime = calendar;
Calendar toDateTime = fromDateTime;
toDateTime.add(Calendar.MINUTE, 30);
SimpleDateFormat dateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("dd-MMM-yyyy hh:mm:ss:aa");
String datestring = String.valueOf(fromDateTime.getTime());
String datestring1 = String.valueOf(toDateTime.getTime());
System.out.println(datestring); //here output is Wed May 11 15:36:08 IST 2016
System.out.println(datestring1); // here output is Wed May 11 15:36:08 IST 2016
Date dates = dateFormat.parse(datestring);
Date date1s = dateFormat.parse(datestring1);
System.out.println(dates);
System.out.println(date1s);
}
}
The error I am getting is:
Exception in thread "main" java.text.ParseException: Unparseable date: "Wed May 11 16:05:08 IST 2016"
at java.text.DateFormat.parse(DateFormat.java:357)
at test.Test.main(Test.java:27)
You need to format your dates accordingly. This shall help you
SimpleDateFormat dateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("dd-MM-yyyy HH:mm:ss:aa");
System.out.println(dateFormat.format(fromDateTime.getTime()));
System.out.println(dateFormat.format(toDateTime.getTime()));
