Question

I’m Trying to Convert String to Date in My Android App to Insert Data in SQL Database through jdbc. But while i tried to convert String to Date i’m Getting the Following Error.

10-29 15:34:55.404: W/Error connection(11433): java.util.Date

Here is My Sample Code Here i imported java.util.Date;

String sDate="29/10/2012 12:00:00 AM";
Date bondDate = (Date) new SimpleDateFormat("dd/MM/yyyy").parse(sDate);
CallableStatement cStmtInsertPOdetails =conn.prepareCall("{call dbo.InsertDetails(?)}");
cStmtInsertPOdetails.setDate("@POD_BondDate",(java.sql.Date)bondDate);

Please Help me To Solve this issue?

Answer 1

bondDate which is java.util.Date can not be cast to java.sql.Date. Use new java.sql.Date(bondDate.getTime())

    String sDate = "29/10/2012 12:00:00 AM";
    Date bondDate = new SimpleDateFormat("dd/MM/yyyy").parse(sDate);
    java.sql.Date sqlDate = new java.sql.Date(bondDate.getTime());

Though it will be advisable to use pattern dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm:ss a. Check SimpleDateFormat to understand about Time Pattern Syntax
