Date Format of Java Calendar

Can someone give me the date format that is returned by the calendar?
Thanks.

How about if you want to specify/display the time, what is the default?
I tried using Date Picker (MM/DD/YYYY HH24:MI). When I click on the calendar icon, the default date is today's date, but the default time is set to +5 hours ahead. Any way to make the default time, the system's default time? I also checked out database sysdate - and the time is correct in there.
It works perfectly if I set the default value to be to_char(sysdate, 'MM/DD/YYYY HH24:MI') it displays the correct date and time. But the users of the app do not want the default date/time to be displayed in the field, they want to manually pick it from their calendar themselves with the default on the calendar popup to displays today's date and the current time.

How to change a date format to a calendar format

Date Dateformat= getDateFormat();

Date format for ipc calendar control in configuration UI

Hi
Does anyone know how to change the format of the date in the calendar control of the configuration UI? Currently when I try to configure a product in the b2c webshop or through SAPGUI, my date characteristics display in MM/DD/YY rather than DD/MM/YY. I have checked the usual suspects (default date format of WEBLOGIN user, logged in customer, my user) and all are set to DD/MM/YY. I could not find a setting in the XCM either.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks
Mike

Hi Mike,
Date display property is part of user settings for User ID.
Go to transaction SU3
Go to Default tab and adjust the date formats.

Date formatting with java and axis

Hi,
My wsdl file has date field which uses xsd:dateTime data type. In my web service implementation java class I am passing value to this variable using Calendar.getInstance().
I am using Axis framework. When I check my soap output using TCP monitor I find that the date is of format eg: 2007-01-02T12:01:23.342Z.
The date output belongs to GMT and includes character Z. How do I get SOAP output in locale specific date time format. I used xsd:dateTime along with format parameter but no use.

The date is wrong because I ran the test using october
20th data and my data showed up.
The actual test is from 9/1 to 10/19.This still doesn't tell me what you tried, what you expected, or what you got. If you use the timestamps that you mentioned in your earlier post:
from: Wed Sep 01 00:00:00 CDT 2004
to: Wed Oct 20 00:00:00 CDT 2004
then you will get all timestamps from Sept 01 to Oct 19, inclusive. You won't get any on October 20 except for 00:00:00. Was that what you expected or was it not?
I'm still guessing here, but possibly the timestamps in your database aren't in the same timezone as CDT. If they are GMT timestamps then you'll be off by, what is it, three or five hours?

Converting from milliseconds to a date format in java

This so that, that date can be inserted into a date column in mysql
What I have is something like 1119193190
I do:
SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("MMM dd,yyyy HH:mm");
Date resultdate = new Date(yourmilliseconds);
System.out.println(sdf.format(resultdate));
and Java gives me something like:
Jul 04,2004 14:06
But Java then when inserting into a mysql table is all like um....no:
com.mysql.jdbc.MysqlDataTruncation: Data truncation: Incorrect date value: 'Jul 04,2004 14:06' for column 'prodDate' at row 1
proDate is of type date in mysql.

java.sql.Date date = new java.sql.Date(Something , what I have no idea, Should go here);
instead of
SimpleDateFormat dateFormatter = new SimpleDateFormat("MMM dd,yyyy HH:mm");
and then carry on as normal?
If so, what should go in those brackets based on the code?
java.sql.Date date = new java.sql.Date("MMM dd,yyyy HH:mm");
This is all being read in from a text file and converted over before being spit out to the data base, it all works except for the date...

Red X - Due to conflict between date format in Windows Regional settings

Hello
I face the following issue. To display some graphes that result of the selection of a date in a Java calendar (format mm/dd/yy) I have to change the Windows regional settings.
Which of course impact other applications like Excel....
Is there some settings/applet that can be set in Java JRE to prevent this issue ?
Same issue what ever the JRE version used.
currently JRE 1.4.2_07 VM 1.4.2_07-b05, plug-in 1.4.2_07

Hi Kevin,
I doubt anyone outside of Sun would be able to give you a definite answer to this one, but from my understanding of the JDK's interactions with Windows, I'd have to say no.
I usually find that about the only Windows default that the JDK picks on is the current user locale. From there, the JDK likely chooses its own default date and currency formatting instances, as these are all packaged up within i18n.jar within the JDK libraries.
If anyone can prove me wrong though, please do!
Hope that helps!

How to accept date parameter from java if SP have the datatype as DATE

Dear Gurus,
I have written SP as below
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE proc1
No NUMBER,
StartDate DATE,
EndDate DATE
AS
BEGIN
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Start Date ='||to_char(StartDate,'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS'));
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Start Date ='||to_char(EndDate,'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS'));
END;
If I want to pass date from java code to above SP. Then how to send Date to SP from Java code.
Means if I print that date in SP then it should be print as it is what i sent from java.
e.g. Start Date = 2008-02-01 00:00:00
End Date = 2008-02-01 23:59:59
Could any one help me in above issue.
Regards
Sanjeev Atvankar

Yes, because there is no default date format in oracle for date value having time part.
Suppose your agreed date format between java and pl/sql is DDMMYYYYHH24MISS.
You create procedure as:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE proc1
No NUMBER,
StartDate VARCHAR2,
EndDate VARCHAR2,
AS
v_start_date date := to_date(startdate,'DDMMYYYYHH24MISS');
v_end_date date := to_date(enddate,'DDMMYYYYHH24MISS');
BEGIN
/* YOU can use local pl/sql date variables inside your plsql code*/
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Start Date ='||to_char(StartDate,'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS'));
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Start Date ='||to_char(EndDate,'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS'));
END;

Date format error while accessing date from SQLSERVER

Hi all, in me webdynpro application I have taken Date type for the Input Field.
At date select it is displaying in the format
*2/14/2009 i.e. mm/dd/yyyy*
And when I am saving date in the sql database then the date format changes to..
2009-02-14 i.e..yyyy/mm/dd.
But using the Date format method I have changed the format as per the need to push date in the SQL database table...
In the table SQL the date attribute is in form i.e.    02/14/2009 as like from the date select from the date Input Fieldu2026But the problem is that database is not being able to display in that Input field again.
I have use the coding both at Insertion and selection of the database i.e..
Date Sdate, Edate;
Sdate     =   Date.valueOf (rs.getString ("Sdate"));
Edate     =   Date.valueOf (rs.getString ("Edate"));
SimpleDateFormat date Formatter = new SimpleDateFormat ("MM/dd/yyyy");
Sdate = wdContext.currentProjectElement ().getEdate ();
Edate = wdContext.currentProjectElement ().getEdate ();
String Sd = dateFormatter.format (Sdate);
String Ed = dateFormatter.format (Edate);
Date Sdd =Date.valueOf (Sd);
Date Edd =Date.valueOf (Ed);
But at selection of the database the error for the date format isu2026.
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException
If somebody knows how to resolve this ,plz let me know
Regards:
SK

for displaying the value only, I think, you are converting to string.
sol1:
1. Create a simple type in dictionary: under Dictionary -> Local Dictionary -> Simple Types
2. go to Definition tab: Change Built-in Type as Date
3. go to Representation tab: specify format e.g.: MM/dd/yyyy
4. go to Context and change the date context attribute to the created type.
sol2:
please try to minimize the casting between Date and String.
I believe in database date is stored as Date type itself. My suggestion will be for displaying keep a separate attribute and set it on each db call.
below code is converting from Date to String.
Date Sdate, Edate;
Sdate = rs.getDate ("Sdate");
Edate = rs.getDate ("Edate");
SimpleDateFormat date Formatter = new SimpleDateFormat ("MM/dd/yyyy");
String Sd = dateFormatter.format (Sdate);
String Ed = dateFormatter.format (Edate);

Converting time stamp in SECONDS to a calendar date format.. problems

Hello. I'm trying to convert a long interger that represents the number of SECONDS passed since the 1970 date
the number was originally generated by php's mktime() function
one of the numbers I have for example is this : 1126933200
I haven't done the math but this is a date probably around september of 2005.. it's irrelevant anyhow.
I want to convert this to a date format I can use in java. I've tried to create a new date like so :
Date date = new Date(1126933200);
I've also tried it with the calendar method like so :
Calendar calendar = new GregorianCalendar();
calendar.setTimeInMillis(1126933200);
it was only then that I realized that both these methods require the number of MILLI seconds. So I tried doing a simple multiplication by 1000 on my original number and then I started getting a "integer number too large" error when trying to compile.
so i'm kind of at a loss here.. i figure I could make a function myself that would divide my number in days of 86400 seconds.. and then i'd have to keep in mind the bisectal (sp) and the months with more and less days etc.. but i'm sure there must be an easier way.
and i don't get why a method who's meant to receive a very long number is giving me an error when i try to give one to it.
your help is appreciated as always. thanks

Note you also need to define what timezone that seconds number represents.
With Gregorian it is going to use the local timezone (the code here will anyways). The code using Date is using the UTC timezone.

PJC Calendar setDate Wrong date format. Date change failed?

Forms 10.1.2 using forms demos pjc code.
The calendar pjc I added to my form works except I can't initialize it with a date. If I try to initialize a date it always produces 'Wrong date format. Date change failed.' error.
In a post-query trigger, I initialize the calendar's date using:
SET_CUSTOM_PROPERTY('PJC.CALENDAR',1,'setDate',to_char(:lead.date_received,'DD.MM.YYYY'));
In the java console, this yields:
Warning: Wrong date format. Date change failed.
Warning: Wrong date format. Date change failed.
I get the same result when using a hardcoded date like:
SET_CUSTOM_PROPERTY('PJC.CALENDAR',1,'setDate','01.12.2006');
What is the flaw in my incantation?

Hello,
This is the syntax used in the calendarpjc Forms demo:
    call the setDate method on the calendar PJC via the PL/SQL built in
    set_custom_item_property
    convert Oracle date to String recognised by Java
procedure setDate(d in date) is
begin
    set_custom_property(lGlobals.hCalendar,1,'setDate',to_char(d,'Mon DD, YYYY'));

Is there a way to change the Calendar date format in iCloud? It seems to default to the 'American' way even though on my iMac it is set to the 'British' way.

My calendar in iCloud has the following format:
1/12/2011 for the 12 January 2011
I would like it to be as all my other Calendars were/are:
12/1/2011 for 12th January 2011
Any help gratefully accepted

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Click on the gear icon in the top right corner and select preferences from the menu that appears, you can adjust the date format from there.

Date format problem in web dynpro java

Currently, the date format that gets displayed in our webdynpro java application is MMDDYYYY...i am assuming this is because the web dynpro application has language resource set to en_US as its Current locale in the web dynpro deployed content section. Howver i want it to display as DDMMYYYY. I have changed the default properties in visual admin for web dynpro from en to en_GB however this has no impact what so ever as the current locale is always set to en_US even after the change so am wondering this property is hidden some where else. Now the web dynpro i am talking about is a adobe portal application. Could you give me any pointers as to where else i can look for or how i can change the current locale properly ??
Regards
Kal

The date format in the Web Dynpro Java Application depends upon locale. At runtime WDJ will do the following process to get the current locale for the date format to be determined.
1. First the WDJ Application will check for the locale set for the user in UME.
2. If there is no default locale in UME, then the it will check for the locale in the in the browser which in most cases by default is en-us.
3. If not, then it will check for the sap.systemLocale in the Propertysheet default of Visual Admin
4. If there no locale specified in Visual Admin, itu2019s taken from the WAS JVM

Java.sql.SQLException:ORA-01801:date format is too long for internal buffer

Hi,
I am getting the following exception when i trying to insert data in to a table through a stored procedure.
oracle.apps.fnd.framework.OAException: java.sql.SQLException: ORA-01801: date format is too long for internal buffer
when execute this stored procedure from ana anonymous block , it gets executed successfully, but i use a OracleCallableStatement to execute the procedure i am getting this error.
Please let me know how to resolve this error.
Is this error something to do with the Database Configuration ?
Thanks & Regards
Meenal

I don't know if this will help, but we were getting this error in several of the standard OA framework pages and after much pain and aggravation it was determined that visiting the Sourcing Home Page was changing the timezone. For most pages this just changed the timezone that dates were displayed in, but some had this ORA-01801 error and some others had an ORA-01830 error (date format picture ends before converting entire input string). Unfortunately, if you are not using Sourcing at your site, this probably won't help, but if you are, have a look at patch # 4519817.
Note that to get the same error, try the following query (I got this error in 9.2.0.5 and 10.1.0.3):
select to_date('10-Mar-2006', 'DD-Mon-YYYY________________________________________________HH24:MI:SS') from dual;
It appears that you can't have a date format that is longer than 68 characters.
