<p><a class="el" href="classSimpleDateFormat.html" title="SimpleDateFormat is a concrete class for formatting and parsing dates in a language-independent...">SimpleDateFormat</a> is a concrete class for formatting and parsing dates in a language-independent manner. </p>
<p>It allows for formatting (millis -> text), parsing (text -> millis), and normalization. Formats/Parses a date or time, which is the standard milliseconds since 24:00 GMT, Jan 1, 1970. </p>
<p>Clients are encouraged to create a date-time formatter using DateFormat::getInstance(), getDateInstance(), getDateInstance(), or getDateTimeInstance() rather than explicitly constructing an instance of <a class="el" href="classSimpleDateFormat.html" title="SimpleDateFormat is a concrete class for formatting and parsing dates in a language-independent...">SimpleDateFormat</a>. This way, the client is guaranteed to get an appropriate formatting pattern for whatever locale the program is running in. However, if the client needs something more unusual than the default patterns in the locales, he can construct a <a class="el" href="classSimpleDateFormat.html" title="SimpleDateFormat is a concrete class for formatting and parsing dates in a language-independent...">SimpleDateFormat</a> directly and give it an appropriate pattern (or use one of the factory methods on <a class="el" href="classDateFormat.html" title="DateFormat is an abstract class for a family of classes that convert dates and times...">DateFormat</a> and modify the pattern after the fact with <a class="el" href="classSimpleDateFormat.html#a36952c70a195a18dc2d71e8d8e600d3b" title="Return a pattern string describing this date format.">toPattern()</a> and <a class="el" href="classSimpleDateFormat.html#ad6dcbf05065e6b18ef7985cb2ebc01f2" title="Apply the given unlocalized pattern string to this date format.">applyPattern()</a>. </p>
<p>Date/Time format syntax: </p>
<p>The date/time format is specified by means of a string time pattern. In this pattern, all ASCII letters are reserved as pattern letters, which are defined as the following: </p>

</pre><p> The count of pattern letters determine the format. </p>
<p>(Text): 4 or more, use full form, <4, use short or abbreviated form if it exists. (e.g., "EEEE" produces "Monday", "EEE" produces "Mon") </p>
<p>(Number): the minimum number of digits. Shorter numbers are zero-padded to this amount (e.g. if "m" produces "6", "mm" produces "06"). Year is handled specially; that is, if the count of 'y' is 2, the Year will be truncated to 2 digits. (e.g., if "yyyy" produces "1997", "yy" produces "97".) Unlike other fields, fractional seconds are padded on the right with zero. </p>
<p>(Text & Number): 3 or over, use text, otherwise use number. (e.g., "M" produces "1", "MM" produces "01", "MMM" produces "Jan", and "MMMM" produces "January".) </p>
<p>Any characters in the pattern that are not in the ranges of ['a'..'z'] and ['A'..'Z'] will be treated as quoted text. For instance, characters like ':', '.', ' ', '#' and '@' will appear in the resulting time text even they are not embraced within single quotes. </p>
<p>A pattern containing any invalid pattern letter will result in a failing UErrorCode result during formatting or parsing. </p>

</pre></div>
</pre><p> In the above example, the time value "currentTime_2" obtained from parsing will be equal to currentTime_1. However, they may not be equal if the am/pm marker 'a' is left out from the format pattern while the "hour in am/pm" pattern symbol is used. This information loss can happen when formatting the time in PM.</p>
<p>When parsing a date string using the abbreviated year pattern ("y" or "yy"), <a class="el" href="classSimpleDateFormat.html" title="SimpleDateFormat is a concrete class for formatting and parsing dates in a language-independent...">SimpleDateFormat</a> must interpret the abbreviated year relative to some century. It does this by adjusting dates to be within 80 years before and 20 years after the time the <a class="el" href="classSimpleDateFormat.html" title="SimpleDateFormat is a concrete class for formatting and parsing dates in a language-independent...">SimpleDateFormat</a> instance is created. For example, using a pattern of "MM/dd/yy" and a <a class="el" href="classSimpleDateFormat.html" title="SimpleDateFormat is a concrete class for formatting and parsing dates in a language-independent...">SimpleDateFormat</a> instance created on Jan 1, 1997, the string "01/11/12" would be interpreted as Jan 11, 2012 while the string "05/04/64" would be interpreted as May 4, 1964. During parsing, only strings consisting of exactly two digits, as defined by <code>Unicode::isDigit()</code>, will be parsed into the default century. Any other numeric string, such as a one digit string, a three or more digit string, or a two digit string that isn't all digits (for example, "-1"), is interpreted literally. So "01/02/3" or "01/02/003" are parsed, using the same pattern, as Jan 2, 3 AD. Likewise, "01/02/-3" is parsed as Jan 2, 4 BC.</p>
<p>If the year pattern has more than two 'y' characters, the year is interpreted literally, regardless of the number of digits. So using the pattern "MM/dd/yyyy", "01/11/12" parses to Jan 11, 12 A.D.</p>
<p>When numeric fields abut one another directly, with no intervening delimiter characters, they constitute a run of abutting numeric fields. Such runs are parsed specially. For example, the format "HHmmss" parses the input text "123456" to 12:34:56, parses the input text "12345" to 1:23:45, and fails to parse "1234". In other words, the leftmost field of the run is flexible, while the others keep a fixed width. If the parse fails anywhere in the run, then the leftmost field is shortened by one character, and the entire run is parsed again. This is repeated until either the parse succeeds or the leftmost field is one character in length. If the parse still fails at that point, the parse of the run fails.</p>
<p>For time zones that have no names, <a class="el" href="classSimpleDateFormat.html" title="SimpleDateFormat is a concrete class for formatting and parsing dates in a language-independent...">SimpleDateFormat</a> uses strings GMT+hours:minutes or GMT-hours:minutes. </p>
<p>The calendar defines what is the first day of the week, the first week of the year, whether hours are zero based or not (0 vs 12 or 24), and the timezone. There is one common number format to handle all the numbers; the digit count is handled programmatically according to the pattern.</p>
<p><em>User subclasses are not supported.</em> While clients may write subclasses, such code will not necessarily work and will not be guaranteed to work stably from release to release. </p>
