解析日期字符串的问题

Question

I'm trying to parse the following string to a Date object:

2013-12-26T01:00:56.664Z

Using this SimpleDateFormat :

SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss'Z'");

But I'm getting a:

 java.text.ParseException: Unparseable date: "2013-12-26T01:00:56.664Z" (at offset 19)

What am I doing wrong, How I should handle the T and the Z letters in the date?

Answer 1

The real isssue with the date is not T & Z but the milliseconds.

"yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSS'Z'" This must be the format that is to be used becaue there are milli seconds as well in the input date.

Answer 2

You can use this

String date = "2013-12-26T01:00:56.664Z";
SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSS");
try {
   System.out.println(sdf.parse(date)); // Result Thu Dec 26 01:00:56 CET 2013
} catch (ParseException e) {
   e.printStackTrace();
}
