Question

How to parse this format date string 2013-03-13T20:59:31+0000 to Date object?

I'm trying on this way but it doesn't work.

DateFormat df = new SimpleDateFormat("YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssTZD");
Date result =  df.parse(time);

Answer 1

Try:

DateFormat df = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss'Z'");

check http://developer.android.com/reference/java/text/SimpleDateFormat.html

in specific:

                 yyyy-MM-dd 1969-12-31
                 yyyy-MM-dd 1970-01-01
           yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm 1969-12-31 16:00
           yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm 1970-01-01 00:00
          yyyy-MM-dd HH:mmZ 1969-12-31 16:00-0800
          yyyy-MM-dd HH:mmZ 1970-01-01 00:00+0000
   yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.SSSZ 1969-12-31 16:00:00.000-0800
   yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.SSSZ 1970-01-01 00:00:00.000+0000
 yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSSZ 1969-12-31T16:00:00.000-0800
