how to convert a date dd / mm / yyyy to yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss Android [duplicate]

Answer 1

public static String formatDate (String date, String initDateFormat, String endDateFormat) throws ParseException {

    Date initDate = new SimpleDateFormat(initDateFormat).parse(date);
    SimpleDateFormat formatter = new SimpleDateFormat(endDateFormat);
    String parsedDate = formatter.format(initDate);

    return parsedDate;
}

This will return the parsed date as a String, with the format (both initial and end) as parameters to the method.
