DateFormat dateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat(\"yyyy-mm-dd hh:MM\");
Date date = dateFormat.parse(s         


        

Answer 1

The following code should work well:

try{
String str = "2013-01-17 11:26";
DateFormat dateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm");
Date date = (Date)dateFormat.parse(str);
System.out.println("str :"+str);
System.out.println("Date :"+date);
}
catch(Exception e){
   e.getStackTrace();
}
