SimpleDateFormat.parse（String）提供空值android

Question

I am working on android application in which i am parsing date and time in UTC by using SimpleDateFormat but the problem is that on parsing that string i am getting the null value. My code is given below, along with the date which i got from date pickers.

// It is the date which i get it from pickers mDateSelected = 6/24/2015 4:07:00 PM
Date myDate = null;
                SimpleDateFormat simpleDateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat(
                        "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss");
                simpleDateFormat.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getTimeZone("UTC"));
                try {

                // Here i am getting null Value ar myDate   
                    myDate = simpleDateFormat.parse(mDateSelected);



                } catch (Exception e1) {
                    e1.printStackTrace();

                }

Answer 1

your SimpleDateFormat pattern is wrong. Since you have a date in the format

6/24/2015 4:07:00 PM

it should be

m/dd/yyyy h:mm:ss a

and not

"yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss"

Answer 2

use these code following below

    String Todaydate;
    SimpleDateFormat df = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss");
    Todaydate = df.format(new java.util.Date());
    df.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getTimeZone("UTC"));
    Log.d("Current Date", Todaydate);
