public static void main(String[] args)
{
String sDate = "30.06.2001";
System.out.println( sDate);
SimpleDateFormat localFormatter = new SimpleDateFormat("MM.dd.yyyy");
ParsePosition pos = new ParsePosition(0);
Date myDate = localFormatter.parse(sDate, pos);
System.out.println( localFormatter.format(myDate) );
}
}
It produces the following outup :
30.06.2001
06.06.2003
Any explanation is welcomed.

Re: Java and dates ?
The 6th day of the 30th month of 2001: that's two years later than the 6th
day of the 6th month of 2001.

Re: Java and dates ?
Avoid what? The only other option you have is to make it throw an
exception. And you would do that by
localFormatter.setLenient(false);
