I have a DatePicker and a TimePicker in my app. Can anyone tell me how to get the values of the date and time that are selected??? What i mean to say is, for EditText we can declare as
final EditText name = (EditText) this.findViewById(R.id.nametext);
and we can cast the data of it by using name.getText().toString().
So similarly how can we get the values of DatePicker and TimePicker to a String???
Combined all the answers and made a code snippet out of it.
Import datePicker on the top of your class:
import android.widget.DatePicker;
Inside your class declare the following variable:
private DatePicker dobPicker;
And here is the code to be done in button click event:
dobPicker = (DatePicker)findViewById(R.id.dobPicker);
Integer dobYear = dobPicker.getYear();
Integer dobMonth = dobPicker.getMonth();
Integer dobDate = dobPicker.getDayOfMonth();
StringBuilder sb=new StringBuilder();
sb.append(dobYear.toString()).append("-").append(dobMonth.toString()).append("-").append(dobDate.toString()).append(" 00:00:00");
String dobStr=sb.toString();
Where in R.id.dobPicker, dobPicker is your datePicker in the layout xml file. This gives you a string at the end, which could be stored or sent to the server.
