如何在Java中保存日期（dd.mm.yyyy）

Question

I am getting a date in the form of dd.mm.yyyy and want to save it as a proper object. It should be comparable to another date object. How do I realize this?

Answer 1

使用SimpleDateFormat如下：

Date date = new SimpleDateFormat("dd/MM/yyyy").parse("12/05/2015");

Answer 2

Using JodaTime

String input = "03.01.2015";
DateTimeFormatter formatter = DateTimeFormat.forPattern("dd.MM.yyyy");
DateTime dt = DateTime.parse(input, formatter);
DateTime now = new DateTime();

System.out.println(dt.compareTo(now));

Answer 3

Use SimleDateFormat

String string = "03.01.2015";
DateFormat format = new SimpleDateFormat("MM.dd.yyyy", Locale.ENGLISH);
Date date = format.parse(string);
System.out.println(date); 

Answer 4

Try this code

   try {
        SimpleDateFormat sdf= new SimpleDateFormat("dd.MM.yyyy");
        Date d = sdf.parse("19.05.2090");  
        System.out.println(d);
    } catch (ParseException ex) {
       ex.printStackTrace();
    }
