How to format a duration in java? (e.g format H:MM:SS)

Question

I\'d like to format a duration in seconds using a pattern like H:MM:SS. The current utilities in java are designed to format a time but not a duration.

Answer 1

I'm not sure that is you want, but check this Android helper class

import android.text.format.DateUtils

For example: DateUtils.formatElapsedTime()

android date duration elapsedtime
