Android - Format Timestamp in ListView with Cursor Adapter

Question

I am using a SimpleCursorAdapter to populate an Android ListView, and was wondering how I should go about getting all of the timestamps I get from a database, each in \"DATE

Answer 1

I found it easiest to do the following:

SimpleDateFormat oldTime = new SimpleDateFormat("HH:mm:ss");
SimpleDateFormat newTime = new SimpleDateFormat("hh:mm:ss a");

String stringTime;

try {

        String reformattedStr = newTime.format(oldTime.parse(stringTime));
        } catch (ParseException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
        }
