How to retrieve DATETIME format from Sqlite database

问题

I have stored date (java.util.date object) in a DATETIME field of a Sqlite table. Now, how to retrieve this date which would be of the same format as java.util.date. Actually I want to compare the time difference (in milliseconds) between current date and the store date.

回答1:

Retrieve as Cursor.getString() and pass that value to SimpleDateFormat to make the date object. There is no straight method for getting the date object.

Thank you, Gopinath. Here's code that I used to perform what @Gopinath suggested:

Calendar t = new GregorianCalendar();
SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("MM/dd/YYYY",Locale.getDefault());
java.util.Date dt = sdf.parse(c.getString(4)); //replace 4 with the column index
t.setTime(dt);
