error casting Java.Util.Date into Java.Sql.Date [duplicate]

Answer 1

It's not possible to cast from java.util.Date to java.sql.Date. You need to convert from one type to the other instead:

java.util.Date utilStartDate = jDateChooserStart.getDate();
java.sql.Date sqlStartDate = new java.sql.Date(utilStartDate.getTime());

Answer 2

From the class cast exception you can see that these are 2 distinct types and can't be cast the from one to the other. To convert from java.util.Date to java.sql.Date, you can use:

java.util.Date date = new java.util.Date();
java.sql.Date sqlDate = new java.sql.Date(date.getTime());
