Question

I have used this code to parse a String received from Json in Date Format.

SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss");
                                try{
                                    Date myDateConference = sdf.parse(jsonO.getString("myDateConference")); 
                                }
                                catch(ParseException e){
                                    e.printStackTrace();
                                }

The String of the date is something in this form 2012-08-02T00:00:00

But I get this exception

java.text.ParseException: Unparseable date: "2012-08-02T00:00:00"

What is wrong?

Answer 1

use

SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss");

instead of

SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss");
