Question

i have used the following Code to save date into DB of Sqlite ( java.sql.Date)

public String dateToDB ( Date date)
    {
       String convertedDate = date.toString(); // yyyy-mm-dd
       return convertedDate;
    }   

How can i convert the recovered String into date?

private Date dateFromColumn(String columName, Cursor result)
    {
   // ???????
    return date   
   } 

Answer 1

I found this in the Docs:

Date.valueOf(String dateString) creates a Date from a string
representation of a date in SQL format: yyyy-MM-dd

This means four you:

private Date dateFromColumn(String columName, Cursor result)
{
  String strDate = result.getString(result.getColumnIndex("yourcolumnname..."));
  return Date.valueOf(strDate);   
}
