Get day, month and year separately using SimpleDateFormat

Question

I have a SimleDateFormat like this

SimpleDateFormat format = new SimpleDateFormat(\"MMM dd,yyyy  hh:mm\");
String date = format.format(Date.parse(p         


        

Answer 1

If you need to get the values separately, then use more than one SimpleDateFormat.

SimpleDateFormat dayFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("dd");
String day = dayFormat.format(Date.parse(payback.creationDate.date));

SimpleDateFormat monthFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("MM");
String month = monthFormat .format(Date.parse(payback.creationDate.date));

etc.
