new Date(String)

[cmk128]

Hi
The "Date d=new Date("2005/06/22") is deprecated, the java document
tell me we should use "DateFormat.parse(String)" method, but it is a
static method so we cannot use it in non-static method. How to fix
this?

thanks

I think you've got it backwards in a few places...

'static' methods can definitely be used in non-static contexts.

There can be problems the other way around though...

But DateFormat.parse(String) isn't static at all. I guess you've got it
mixed up with Date.parse(String), which is static, but *also* deprecated.

So, here's an example (not tested, but should give a hint):

import java.text.SimpleDateFormat ;
import java.util.Date;

....

SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy/MM/dd");
Date d = sdf.parse("2005/06/22");

I don't know where you have "double checked" it, and I hate to nitpick, but
as I said before, DateFormat.parse(String) is *not* static.

Anyway thanks again

You're welcome.

ohhh, i thought only static method can reference from the claass name,
but it is not.
How can it be possible?

sorry sorry.
Great mistake, cannot invoke it like this "DateFormat.parse ". Just a
mistake
