NSString to NSDate
Hi I want to convert the string "OCT 1, 2011 18:30" into NSDate format 2011-05-13 19:00:00 +0800.
I have tried with the many formatters but what I am getting is a null value each time.
Can any body help me on this?
You can try this code that will help you because I run successfully.
NSString *dateStr = #"OCT 1, 2011 18:30";
NSDateFormatter *dtF = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[dtF setDateFormat:#"LLL d, yyyy HH:mm"];
NSDate *d = [dtF dateFromString:dateStr];
NSDateFormatter *dateFormatStr = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[dateFormatStr setDateFormat:#"yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss Z"];
NSDate *st = (NSDate *)[dateFormatStr stringFromDate:d];
NSLog(#"%#",st);
try this
NSDateFormatter *datefor = [[[NSDateFormatter alloc] init] autorelease];
[datefor setDateFormat:#"MMM dd, yyyy HH:mm"];
NSDate *date = [datefor dateFromString:#"OCT 1, 2011 18:30"];
[datefor setDateFormat:#"yyyy-MM-dd hh:mm:ss"];
NSString *str= [[NSString alloc] initWithString:[datefor stringFromDate:date]];
NSDate *date_fianl = [datefor dateFromString:str];
[str release];
NSLog(#"%#",date_fianl);//it will print 2011-10-01 01:00:00 +0000

Below is my code
NSString *dateandtime =[NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#",self.eventtime];
NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:#"EEE, dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss Z"];
NSDate *dateFromString = [[NSDate alloc] init];
dateFromString = [dateFormatter dateFromString:dateandtime];
if i print my self.event name i am getting the output as Mon, 7 Jan 2013 15:30:00 CST but when i pass this string in NSDateFormatter i am getting null value i don't know why i tried many combinations of date formats, but i cant solve it, can anyone help me
i solved my problem as Per Prateek comments, now its working for me...Thanks Prateek.
in your self.event, you are getting CST, it should be time zone for example +0530
Use :
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:#"EEE, dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss z"];
Use this code...
- (NSString *)formattedDate:(NSString*)dateSte {
NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[NSTimeZone resetSystemTimeZone];
NSTimeZone *gmtZone = [NSTimeZone systemTimeZone];
[dateFormatter setTimeZone:gmtZone];
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:#"yyyy-MM-dd"];
NSDate *date = [dateFormatter dateFromString:dateSte];
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:#"EEE,MMM d,''yyyy"];
NSString *strDate = [dateFormatter stringFromDate:date];
return strDate;
}
Use the below method for getting the NSDate from NSString date
NSDate *dateFromString = [[NSDate alloc] init];
dateFromString = [self convertStringToDate:dateandtime];
Paste this below method in your .m file...
-(NSDate *)convertStringToDate:(NSString *) date {
NSDateFormatter *formatter = [[[NSDateFormatter alloc] init] autorelease];
NSDate *nowDate = [[[NSDate alloc] init] autorelease];
[formatter setDateFormat:#"EEE, d MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss 'CST'"];// set format here format in which the date should be
date = [date stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:#"+0000" withString:#""];
nowDate = [formatter dateFromString:date];
// NSLog(#"date============================>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> : %#", nowDate);
return nowDate;
}

NSDateFormatter uses the Unicode Date Format Patterns.
NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc]init];
[dateFormat setDateFormat:#"EEE, dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss ZZZ"];
NSDate *date = [dateFormatter dateFromString:stringDate ];
[dateFormatter release];
Try this
NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:#"eee, dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss ZZZ"];
NSDate *dateFromString = [[NSDate alloc] init] ;
dateFromString = [dateFormatter dateFromString:str];
[dateFormatter release];

Converted date is (null)
Yuva.M
NSString *dateWithInitialFormat = #"2011-08-25 18:30:00 +0000";
NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:#"yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss Z"];
NSDate *date = [dateFormatter dateFromString:dateWithInitialFormat];
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:#"MM/dd/yyyy"];
NSString *dateWithNewFormat = [dateFormatter stringFromDate:date];
NSLog(#"dateWithNewFormat: %#", dateWithNewFormat);
From NSLog: dateWithNewFormat: 08/25/2011
See Date Format Patterns
You need to use an NSDateFormatter and set the date format to match how you're storing it, like the below.
NSDateFormatter *df = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[df setDateFormat:#"yyyy-MM-dd hh:mm:ss"];
NSDate *myDate = [df dateFromString: myDateString];
NSDateFormatter* df = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[df setDateFormat:#"MMMM dd, yyyy"];
NSDate* d = [df dateFromString:#"January 06, 1992"];
NSLog(#"%#", d);
NSDate *dispalyDate = d;
NSDateFormatter *dateFormat = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[dateFormat setDateFormat:#"dd MMM"];
NSString *str = [dateFormat stringFromDate:dispalyDate];
NSLog(#"%#", str);
