Question

folks!
I’ve got such date entry:

<pubDate>23/06/2011 11:57</pubDate>

I try to parse it:

mDateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("dd/MM/yyyy hh:mm");
item_tag.getChild("pubDate").setEndTextElementListener(new EndTextElementListener() {

            @Override
            public void end(String body) {
                date= new GregorianCalendar(0,0,0).getTime();
                try {
                    date=mDateFormat.parse(body);
                } catch (ParseException e) {
                    e.printStackTrace();
                }
            }
        });

But I get something like that: 23/57/2011 11:57 I get minutes instead of month value
What’s wrong with my code?

Answer 1

Your code looks OK. Check out what do you really pass to this method, or just check what will happen if you insert line like:

body = "23/06/2011 11:57";
