Separate Date and Time objects

Question

I have a web-form where users can select a date from a calendar pop-up and a time from a dropdown. At the moment I am trying to store the date using a Date object.

Answer 1

Try this:

SimpleDateFormat dateFormatter = new SimpleDateFormat("dd/MM/yyyy");
SimpleDateFormat timeFormatter = new SimpleDateFormat("HH:mm:ss");

String dateAsString = dateFormatter.format(date);
String timeAsString = timeFormatter.format(date);
