I have following code to format a date, but the output does not match with the pattern.
try{
String date = "2014-11-1T12:14:00";
Date convertedDate = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd").parse(date);
System.err.println(convertedDate.toString());
}catch(ParseException p){
System.err.println(p.getMessage());
}
Output
Sat Nov 01 00:00:00 EST 2014
I think you are questioning why you don't get the time, that's because your format doesn't include it. I suggest you use "yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss" to match your input and "yyyy-MM-dd" when you call DateFormat#format(Date),
try {
String date = "2014-11-1T12:14:00";
Date convertedDate = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss").parse(date);
System.out.println(convertedDate.toString());
// Per your comment you wanted to `format()` it like -
System.out.println(new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd").format(convertedDate));
} catch (ParseException p) {
System.err.println(p.getMessage());
}
