Answer 1

Try MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss a format.

Java code to create XML file.

xmlResponse.append("mydate>").append(this.formatDate(resultSet.getTimestamp("date"), "MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss a")).append("");

public String formatDate(Date date, String format)
{
    String dateString = "";
    if(null != date)
    {
        SimpleDateFormat dateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat(format);
        dateString = dateFormat.format(date);
    }
    return dateString;
}
