Thread: Convert Military Time

blackmage wrote: Funny Jokes, hahahahaha. I'm glad all the kids are still here and playin around. SimpleDataFormat. So I would do something like SimpleDateFormat hour = new SimpleDateFormat(hh:MM:ss); But the military time is a string, and hour.format() has the parameters of a Data Object and and Object object, so how do I turn 19:34 into a date? RTFAPI! There is a method named parse. There is another hour type of HH.

What is an easy way I can accomplish this. 17:34 IS standard :) And it's NEVER 9:34, unless the two are based on different timezones. 17:34 in any timezone is (to use US civy notation) 5:34PM.

Classloaders?
