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

mDate = new Date();
DateFormat timeFormat = SimpleDateFormat.getTimeInstance();
DateFormat dateFormat = SimpleDateFormat.getDateInstance();
timeFormat.format(mDate); // formats to: 4:53:03 AM
dateFormat.format(mDate); // formats to: Oct 16, 2014
