java.text.ParseException: Unparseable date “yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSSZ” - SimpleDateFormat

Question

I would appreciate any help with finding bug for this exception:

java.text.ParseException: Unparseable date: \"2007-09-25T15:40:51.0000000Z\"

Answer 1

Z represents the timezone character. It needs to be quoted:

SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSS'Z'");
