Hi,

Following is the example of converting String date into java.util.Date:

package net.roseindia;

import java.text.DateFormat;
import java.text.ParseException;
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
import java.util.Date;
/*
 * Format String date to date
 * format
 */
public class StringToDateExample {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        try {
            String dtStr = "10-Feb-2017";
            DateFormat formatter;
            Date date;
            formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("dd-MMM-yyyy");
            date = (Date) formatter.parse(dtStr);
            System.out.println("Date is " + date);
        } catch (ParseException e) {
            System.out.println("Exception :" + e);
        }

    }
}
