使用DateFormat#format方法将日期转换为字符串:

String pattern = "MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm:ss";

// Create an instance of SimpleDateFormat used for formatting 
// the string representation of date according to the chosen pattern
DateFormat df = new SimpleDateFormat(pattern);

// Get the today date using Calendar object.
Date today = Calendar.getInstance().getTime();        
// Using DateFormat format method we can create a string 
// representation of a date with the defined format.
String todayAsString = df.format(today);

// Print the result!
System.out.println("Today is: " + todayAsString);

从http://www.kodejava.org/examples/86.html

最简单的使用方法如下:

currentISODate = new Date().parse("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss", "2013-04-14T16:11:48.000");

“yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss”是读取日期的格式

输出:太阳4月14日16:11:48 est 2013

注:HH vs HH —HH表示24小时的时间格式 - hh为12h时间格式

让我们试试这个

public static void main(String args[]) {

    Calendar cal = GregorianCalendar.getInstance();
    Date today = cal.getTime();
    DateFormat df7 = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss");

    try {           
        String str7 = df7.format(today);
        System.out.println("String in yyyy-MM-dd format is: " + str7);          
    } catch (Exception ex) {
      ex.printStackTrace();
    }
}

或者效用函数

public String convertDateToString(Date date, String format) {
    String dateStr = null;
    DateFormat df = new SimpleDateFormat(format);

    try {
        dateStr = df.format(date);
    } catch (Exception ex) {
        ex.printStackTrace();
    }
    return dateStr;
}

从转换日期到字符串在Java

    SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss");
    String date = "2010-05-30 22:15:52";
    java.util.Date formatedDate = sdf.parse(date); // returns a String when it is parsed
    System.out.println(sdf.format(formatedDate)); // the use of format function returns a String

public static void main(String[] args) 
{
    Date d = new Date();
    SimpleDateFormat form = new SimpleDateFormat("dd-mm-yyyy hh:mm:ss");
    System.out.println(form.format(d));
    String str = form.format(d); // or if you want to save it in String str
    System.out.println(str); // and print after that
}

public static String formateDate(String dateString) {
    Date date;
    String formattedDate = "";
    try {
        date = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss",Locale.getDefault()).parse(dateString);
        formattedDate = new SimpleDateFormat("dd/MM/yyyy",Locale.getDefault()).format(date);
    } catch (ParseException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

    return formattedDate;
}
