Removing Z/z and time from Calender date

[reachsudha sudhakar]

Hi,
I observe that in the Java Calender date when mapping from one calender date eleemnt to another calender date element I am getting calender date appending z or time at the end of the date value. I want to know how to truncate/remove the Z and time from calender date:

EX:

<NewArrival date="2011-05+01:00">
<NewArrival date = date="2011-01Z">

These red coloured needs to be removed from calender date.

Please explain how to do that to remove them from calender date.

Please give the reply soon, its urgent.

Thanks.

Not very sure. But can't you use some standard java parsers to retrieve the values and then use String bases api's to remove the part.

Not able to retrieve that date part alone from calder date or apply parse/dateformat methods on calender, if possible can you give an example as how we can do that..
