How create Date Object with values in java

Question

I was trying to create a date object in Java. But, I cannot able to find any easy way. Is there any easy way available?

Answer 1

In able to create a date object, we can use calendar function like:

 Date date = new GregorianCalendar(2014, Calendar.FEBRUARY, 11).getTime();

Also, you can try the below method to create a date object:

public static Date parseDate(String date) {

     try {

         return new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd").parse(date);

     } catch (ParseException e) {

         return null;

     }

  }

I hope this will help.
