exception java .text,java.text.ParseException尝试在java中解析日期

I can not parse the string "16 Apr 2014 17:00" as a string. I've trying to use DateUtils in apachecommons library. here is the test code with the exception

package com.buraktas;

import java.text.ParseException;

import java.util.Date;

import org.apache.commons.lang3.time.DateUtils;

import org.junit.Test;

public class ParseDateTest {

@Test

public void test() throws ParseException {

String date = "18 Apr 2014 20:00";

Date parseDate = DateUtils.parseDate(date, "dd MMM yyyy HH:mm");

System.out.println(parseDate);

}

}

and the stacktrace is like below;

java.text.ParseException: Unable to parse the date: 18 Apr 2014 20:00

EDIT: The thing is I have to setup default locale to en_US even my JVM shows that my default is en _US. Here is the code.

@Test

public void testParse2() throws Exception {

System.out.println(Locale.getDefault());

String date = "18 Apr 2014 20:00";

Locale.setDefault(Locale.ENGLISH);

Date parseDate = DateUtils.parseDate(date, new String[] { "dd MMM yyyy HH:mm" });

System.out.println(parseDate);

}

and the output is

en_US

Fri Apr 18 20:00:00 EEST 2014

From your profile, it seems you are in Turkey. As such, if parseDate uses the default Locale, it may be using a Turkish Locale. Apr is not a shorthand for the Turkish word for that month.

Consider using your own SimpleDateFormat where you can set an English Locale (unless DateUtils has such a method).

Otherwise, try parsing a date with the Turkish (shorthand) word for April.

Inspecting the source, I can't find anything wrong. Please try

String date = "18 Apr 2014 20:00";

Locale.setDefault(Locale.US);

Date parseDate = DateUtils.parseDate(date, new String[] { "dd MMM yyyy HH:mm" });

System.out.println(parseDate);
