I am converting Date to string format in yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss format to save in sqlite database below is object declared for simple date format
public static SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss");
Sometime it prepends pair of zeros in date as you can see in below image
Example Wrong date returns as as below
2018-08-25 02:32:0000
2018-08-25 02:32:0049
2018-0008-25 02:32:50
2018-08-24 0023:32:50
I have created custom funtion to correct this wrong date. But I want to know exact cause of this issue.
below is the code
public static String getCurrentDateTime() {
Date d = new Date();
String datetime = sdf.format(d);
if (datetime.length() > 19) {
datetime = correctDate(datetime);
}
return datetime;
}
