How to convert the date Tue Nov 13 14:35:04 +0000 2012 String format to date in Java?
I know of Date.parse(String) but I don’t know which format I should use for the date. Do I have to modify the string so that it can be parsed into date, and if yes then how?

Answer 1

 SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("EEE MMM dd HH:mm:ss Z yyyy", Locale.US);
 Date test = sdf.parse("Tue Nov 13 14:35:04 +0000 2012");
 System.out.print(test.toString());
