How to split date and time from a datetime string?

Question

I have a string like 8/29/2011 11:16:12 AM. I want to split that string into separate variables like

date = 8/29/2011
time = 11:16:12 AM
         


        

Answer 1

Try the split function in Java:

String my_string="8/29/2011 11:16:12 AM"
String [] my_date_time = null;
my_date_time = my_string.split(" ");
String Date_str=my_date_time[0];
String Time_str=my_date_time[1]+" "+my_date_time[2];

You get variable Strings like this Date_str="8/29/2011" and Time_str="11:16:12 AM"
