Converting a Gregorian to a Persian date with a Library

Question

I want to use persian date in my android App im using this Library

But i have problem with formating date for example

  SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy MMM dd");
        Calendar calendar = new GregorianCalendar(2017,9,14);


        System.out.println(sdf.format(calendar.getTime()));

In the code above my result is : 2017/9/14

How to show the persian date with the library I said

Answer 1

call the function like this

PersianDate pdate = new PersianDate(Calendar.getInstance(());
PersianDateFormat pdformater1 = new PersianDateFormat('Y/m/d');
pdformater1.format(pdate);

and if you want to parse a string date use this:

    PersianDateFormat pdformater1 = new PersianDateFormat("yyyy/MM/dd");
    try {
        PersianDate persianDate = pdformater1.parse("1397/06/21");
        Log.e("DATE", "date " + persianDate.getShYear() + "-" + persianDate.getShMonth() + "-" + persianDate.getShDay());
    } catch (ParseException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
