Converting String foramt(yyyy-mm-dd) to java.sql.Date format(mm/dd/yyyy)

Hi,
I am new to this Technology.
in my Project DataBase I have the date field as String in format yyyy-mm-dd. when I am trying to fetch this date through the front-end I need to see the date in dd/mm/yyyy format of type java.sql.Date Variable.
if you know, Pl help me.
Thanks in Advance,
Kamala.

Then use a SimpleDateFormat object to parse it into a Date object, and also to format the Date the way you want to see it, rather than simply relying on the toString() implementation.

Making java.sql.Date dd.mm.yyyy format

I must use dd.mm.yyyy format.
How can it be done?
Thanks.

You can use the following line of code to change the date format
SimpleDateFormat formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("dd.MM.yyyy");
String formattedDate = formatter.format(<Ur java.sql.Date instance>);

How can af:selectInputDate be sent to database as java.sql.Date???

I want to send seletInpuDate component value throught to DB as java.sql.Date format, selectInputDate value returns java.util.Date.
I'm using also Oracle Toplink, is there any way to accomplish this problem with an expression query???

Use setTimestamp() instead.
This allows you to specify date and / or time

How to convert JAVA.SQL.DATE date in YYYY/MM/DD format into DD/MM/YYYY

i am using informix database which accepts date value in the form of DATE format......
the other part of my application takes date from the field in DD/MM/YYYY format...so i have to convert my java.sql.date in YYYY/MM/DD fromat into DD/MM/YYYY fromat of same type before inserting into db......
but using parse method in SimpleDateFormat class can get the result only in java.util.date format...
and also using format method can result only in string conversion........

Maybe you mean Informix (fronted by JDBC) expects date values as java.sql.Date objects?
the other part of my application takes date from the field in DD/MM/YYYY format...
so i have to convert my java.sql.date in YYYY/MM/DD format into DD/MM/YYYY format of same type before inserting into db......I am not sure why you are talking about formats here.
There is no formatting inherent in a java.util.Date object
nor in a java.sql.Date object.
but using parse method in SimpleDateFormat class can get the result only in java.util.date format...
and also using format method can result only in string conversion........You can easily create a java.sql.Date object from a java.util.Date object.
String s = "31/12/2010";
java.util.Date ud = new java.text.SimpleDateFormat("dd/MM/yyyy").parse(s);
java.sql.Date sd = new java.sql.Date(ud.getTime());
ud = sd; // java.sql.Date extends java.util.Date so no conversion is needed

Convert string into java.sql.Date

Hi,
I want to convert a date in string form into java.sql.Date to persist into the database column with Date as its datatype in Oracle. I'm trying as follows:
import java.sql.Date;
import java.text.ParseException;
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
public class DateTest
public static void main(String[] args)
String strDate = "2002-07-16 14:45:01";
     System.out.println("strDate = "+strDate);
Date aDate = null;
try
if(strDate != null && !strDate.trim().equals(""))
     SimpleDateFormat aSDF = new SimpleDateFormat();
     aSDF.applyPattern("yyyy-MM-dd hh:mm:ss");
     java.util.Date utilDate = aSDF.parse(strDate);
System.out.println("utildate = "+utilDate);
     aDate = new Date(utilDate.getTime());
     aDate.setTime(utilDate.getTime());
     System.out.println("aDate = "+aDate);
catch (ParseException e)
System.out.println("Unable to parse the date - "+strDate);
catch (Exception ex)
ex.printStackTrace();
System.out.println("Caught Exception :"+ex.getMessage());
It gives the output as :
strDate = 2002-07-16 14:45:01
utildate = Tue Jul 16 14:45:01 IST 2002
aDate = 2002-07-16
If I put this value into the database table, I can see only the date. Time part is missing. Is this the problem with java.sql.Date or Oracle datatype Date? Please help me asap.
Thanks in advance.

Convert java.sql.Date to oracle.jbo.domain.Date in oaf

Hi,
Need to dafault NeedBydate(i get in from query as below) to a messagelovinput and make it read only.
i am facing some issue in converting from java.sql.Date to oracle.jbo.domain.Date.
unable to figure out the problem.
below is the sample code im trying to use.
PreparedStatement ps=pageContext.createPreparedStatement("select sysdate from dual");
ResultSet rs=ps.executeQuery();
if (rs!=null && ps.next()
java.sql.Date sqlDate= rs.getDate(1);
oracle.jbo.domain.Date oracleDate = new oracle.jbo.domain.Date(sqlDate.getTime());
vorow.setAttribute("Datevalue",oracleDate);
this is my assumption : to set to UI i need date in format dd-Mon-yyyy.(am i correct? as to get that format i tried to use simple date format class but no use)
when i tried to use simple date format :unpaseable date exception was raised.
please guide.

Hi,
Why are you using this code???
PreparedStatement ps=pageContext.createPreparedStatement("select sysdate from dual");
ResultSet rs=ps.executeQuery();
if (rs!=null && ps.next()
java.sql.Date sqlDate= rs.getDate(1);
oracle.jbo.domain.Date oracleDate = new oracle.jbo.domain.Date(sqlDate.getTime());
you can get sysdate using this and then set it
oracle.jbo.domain.Date currentDate = am.getOADBTransaction().getCurrentUserDate();
java.text.SimpleDateFormat displayDateFormat = new java.text.SimpleDateFormat ("yyyy-MM-dd");
String DateForm = displayDateFormat.format(currentDate.dateValue());
oracle.jbo.domain.Date dateset = new oracle.jbo.domain.Date(DateForm);
and then set the attribute
vorow.setAttribute("Datevalue",dateset);
Thanks,
Gaurav

Shows up following error msg:
Type mismatch: cannot convert from java.util.Date to java.sql.Date
I don't think this exception is thrown from the portion of code you have shown. As clearly specified in exception message, you cannot cast an instance of java.util.Date to java.sql.Date. you will need to do something like this
java.util.Date today = new java.util.Date();
long t = today.getTime();
java.sql.Date dt = new java.sql.Date(t);
