Convert system date into mm-dd-yyyy format

Hi everyone, I am developing an web application in jsp.In my application when a client enters his information like name,email etc, they are copied into the database.What i need now is at the same time the system date also has to enter into the database in the format mm-dd-yyyy.My application doesn't ask the user to enter the particular date.So immediately after the client clicks the save button along with the information he saved the system date also has to enter into his particular database. Can anyone help me how to program this or give an idea regarding the approach to be followed. Any sample code is highly appreciated.Thanks in advance,

well, your application collects user entered info at some place (either in a jsp or a servlet or a handler). At this point you have to generate the sysdate in the specified format.
For example, if its a servlet that collects the user info,
public void doGet(.........){
   //collect all request parameters
   //code from previous post to generate date in specific format
   //call method to insert all data
}You will have to import the library classes as shown below in your program.
import java.util.Calendar;
import java.util.Date;
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;cheers,
ram.
PS: Also when your sql statement should use some kind of functions to convert the String to a date value for insertion.
For example, in Oracle, you would do this,
insert into test values(to_date('08-24-2005','mm-dd-yyyy'));Here test is a table with one date column.
The to_date() function converts the string, which is the first argument, to a date and conversion pattern is the second argument.
Unfortunately I cant help you with this because Iam not so familiar with mysql.
cheers,

Converting string to date in mm/dd/yyyy format

Hi,
I used simpledateformat to convert date to "MM/dd/yyyy" format.
Now when i want to insert into db, i want the value as date object instead of string [returned by format method of SimpleDateFormat]
what should i do?
Date dt = new Date();
SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("MM/dd/yyyy");
System.out.println("Formatted date is coming as "+sdf.format(dt));
Date dt1 = sdf.parse(sdf.format(dt);
System.out.println("parsed date is coming as " +dt1);
output :
1 SOP returns 11/07/2007 [current date]
2 SOP returns Wed Nov 07 00:00:00 GMT+05:30 2007

If you are using PreparedStatements setDate method, you need a java.sql.Date object, not a Java.util.Date object. You can create an sql.Date object from a util.Date object as follows:
java.sql.Date sqlDate = new java.sql.Date(dt.getTime());And, if you are not using PreparedStatement and its setDate method, then change now.
Doing
Date dt1 = sdf.parse(sdf.format(dt));is meaningless. You format the date to string, then parse the string back to a date? Why? Why not just use the original Date object? And you won't get a sql.Date object that way, either, as the DateFormat classes return a util.Date object.
Edit: And for more info:
A Date does not have a format. It is simply a number. The "format" only comes into play when printing the String representation of the Date, and that is not handled by the Date object itself (except when calling toString either explicitly or implicitly).

Convert the date into user default date formate

How to convert BLOB data into string format.

Hi,
I have problem while converting blob data into string format.
for example,
Select dbms_lob.substr(c.shape.Get_wkb(),4000,1) from geotable c
will get me the first 4000 byte of BLOB .
When i using SQL as i did above,the max length is 4000, but i can get 32K using plsql as below:
declare
my_var CLOB;
BEGIN
for x in (Select X from T)
loop
my_var:=dbms_lob.substr(x.X,32767,1)
end loop
return my_var;
I comfortably convert 32k BLOB field to string.
My problem is how to convert blob to varchar having size more than 32K.
Please help me to resolve this,
Thanx in advance for the support,
Nilesh

Nilesh,
. . . .The result of get_wkb() will not be human readable (all values are encoded into some binary format).
SELECT utl_raw.cast_to_varchar2(tbl.geometry.get_wkt()) from FeatureTable tbl;
-- resulting string:
☺AW(⌂özßHAA
Å\(÷. . . .You may also want to have a look at { dbms_lob | http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14258/d_lob.htm#i1015792 } "The DBMS_LOB package provides subprograms to operate on BLOBs, CLOBs, NCLOBs, BFILEs, and temporary LOBs."

Convert system time into User local time.

Hi,
How to convert System time into User Local time.
Are there any FMs available.
Regards,
Kiran

hi,
There is just one simple funda behind the Date and time logic in SAP.
-> It is absolutely useless to store Date and time directly in DB. Why ?
Because 00:00 a.m in London could mean 05:30 in India !! So If I (in India) store a Date 1st Feb 2008 , 10:00 a.m .. This time for a person in London could be invalid.. because he is behind your time zone..
So the solution is to store the date/times in Timestamps format. Taking the above example.. 1st Feb 2008, 10:00 a.m (in India) will be stored as 20080201043000.
This time if seen in German Time zone will look as : 1st Feb 2008, 05:30 a.m.
Simple right
-> In India we store date as DD.MM.YYYY while in other countries they store it as MM.DD.YYYY.
The separator could be . or - or / .
The date format is user dependent. I might prefer to store it as DD.MM.YYYY and you might want to store it as MM-DD-YYYY.
System does not bother what your format is. It always stores in YYYYMMDD (8 Char)
On screens if you want to display Date then it must always be shown in that users format who is seeing it. How to get this done ?
DATA : lv_date(10) type c.
write sy-datum into lv_date.
So in LV_DATE variable the date will be stores in the users format.
Simple right
There are function modules that do the same. But normally we should avoid use of FM to make code simpler, short and easy... no complications at all ..
You can use system variables sy-datlo (Local Date for Current User) and sy-timlo ( Local Time of Current User ).
You can also use GET TIME statement.
reward if useful,

Hi,
You can use SimpleDateFormat class under java.text package.
SimpleDateFormat formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("dd-MMM-yy h:mm a z", new Locale());
//formatter.setTimeZone(timezone);
String dateTime = formatter.format(new Date());

Date in mm/dd/yyyy format

I have a dunning output that is prodcuing the date in mm/dd/yyyy format despite the user settings being dd/mm/yyyy - and there is no set country command on the form - any ideas of why this is occuring or how I change it.

Hi,
This can be because at time the date settings can be pulled from customer records.
For example. In SPRO you can configure date settings based on countries.
So if your customer belongs to XXXX country then it can pick up the date settings from SPRO.
You can check with a functional guy for the node where you do settings for different countries.
I will try and send you the details later as i dont have system handy.
Thanks

Calculate future date in MM/dd/yyyy format

Hi,
I am trying to add a 56 months to a given date (MM/dd/yyyy string) and output the date in MM/dd/yyyy format.
Here is my code:
               SimpleDateFormat date = new SimpleDateFormat("MM/dd/yyyy");
               date.parse("07/30/2000");
               GregorianCalendar gc = new GregorianCalendar();
               gc.add(Calendar.MONTH,+56);
               System.out.println(date.format(gc.getTime())); I tried to assign date.parse() to a Date but there is no fomat method on Date so to add months to the date. Could someone suggest me how to calculate a future date?

thanks for looking, just found the answer:
               SimpleDateFormat date = new SimpleDateFormat("MM/dd/yyyy");
               Date dt = date.parse("07/30/2000");
               GregorianCalendar gc = new GregorianCalendar();
               gc.setTime(dt);         //this was missing
               gc.add(Calendar.MONTH,+56);
               System.out.println(date.format(gc.getTime()));
