unhandled exception type ParseException

Question

I'm using this part of code in my app :

SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd'T'hh:mm:ss'Z'");
Date qdate = new GregorianCalendar(0,0,0).getTime();
try {
    qdate = sdf.parse(dt);
} catch (ParseException e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
}

but Eclipse throws an error saying :

Unhandled exception type ParseException

What is the problem here? Do u need me to post the whole code ? Thnx in advance !

See below code

        String date = "Sat, 23 Jun 2012 00:00:00 +0000";
        try {
            SimpleDateFormat format = new SimpleDateFormat("EEE, dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss z");
            SimpleDateFormat df2 = new SimpleDateFormat("dd/MM/yy");
            date = df2.format(date));
        } catch (java.text.ParseException e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance();

SimpleDateFormat df = new SimpleDateFormat("DD-MM-YYYY");

String Currentdatestr = df.format(c.getTime());

//get current date in String

Date date = df.parse(Currentdatestr);

//String to parse Date Format
