how to convert date which is taken as string and assign some formate in android

Question

I have date in below format coming from api response and in pojo i take it as string and now date is taken as string and my concern is Date is deprecated in api 16. My main question is how to convert this and assign some date format to it. "date":1561040449000"

historyList.get(position).getTxnDate() = "1561040449000"
   long dateToLong = Long.parseLong(historyList.get(position).getTxnDate());
                                SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("dd MMMM yyyy", Locale.getDefault());
                                String dateString = sdf.format(new Date(dateToLong));

Pass your long typed "date" timestamp to this method and it will return date in specified format:

 public static String getDateFromTimeStamp(long date) {
        SimpleDateFormat formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss");
        return formatter.format(new Date(date));
    }

I believe it has to do something with parseLong. I am not getting any exception at my end. You can just modify your pojo to accept a long value by default instead of string to avoid this. – Pro Mode Jun 21 '19 at 09:41
pojo cannot be changed to long – user11651444 Jun 21 '19 at 09:44
