DateFormatter parse String to Date gives wrong format

Captai-N :

I have the following piece of code:

System.out.println(array[9]);
Date d = df.parse(array[9]);
System.out.println(d.toString());

and the result of this looks like the following:

01.01.2017

Sun Jan 01 00:00:00 CET 2017

My DateFormatter:

DateFormat df = new SimpleDateFormat("dd.MM.yyyy",Locale.GERMANY);

So my question is now why I get the wrong format. First result is a string, which I must convert to date. But I got the wrong format, not the German one (dd.MM.yyyy).

What's wrong?

Karol Dowbecki :

In your example you should use df.format(d) if you plan to convert Date to String. The default Date.toString() method will use the predefined format which you can't control.
