Convert time field H:M into integer field (minutes) in JAVA

Question

The JTable includes the time field, e.g. \"01:50\". I need to read this value into the integer variable. For this I´d like to convert time into minutes. For instance \"01:50

Answer 1

How about this:

String time = "1:50";
String[] split = time.split(":"); 
if(split.length == 2) { 
        long minutes = TimeUnit.HOURS.toMinutes(Integer.parseInt(split[0])) + 
                         Integer.parseInt(split[1]);
        System.out.println(minutes);
    }

/* Output: 110 */
