Java date is not preserving milliseconds in conversion with simple date format

Question

I\'m trying to convert the following string \"2012-04-13 04:08:42.794\" to a date type:

    SimpleDateFormat dateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat(\         


        

Answer 1

He's my go at it (trying to keep the same code style as yours) :

import java.util.*;
import java.text.*;
public class main {
 public static void main(String[] args)throws Exception {
 long yourmilliseconds = 1119193190;
SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("MMM dd,yyyy HH:mm:ss.SSS");

Date resultdate = new Date(yourmilliseconds);
System.out.println(sdf.format(resultdate));  } 
}  

Output :

Jan 13,1970 17:53:13.190
