There is another way.. and read/write date as milliseconds from/to the database. Here are the methods to work with that value:
Date date = new Date(); //or new Date(long millis); date.setTime(millis); //for now, use: System.currentTimeMillis() int millis = date.getTime(); DateFormat df = DateFormat.getDateInstance(DateFormat.SHORT); //or MEDIUM.. formattedDate = df.format(date); date = df.parse(formattedDate); I find this to be the right way.. since millis are an absolute value by convention, and are not language/local dependent.
