I have an array list of strings in the format "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm". Is there any easy way to sort this list? Even if it is just sorted by the date that would be great

Convert the Strings to Calendar objects, sort th Calendar objects, then convert the Calendar objects back to Strings. – Gilbert Le Blanc Oct 16 '16 at 12:05
