How to convert 12 Hour Time to 24 Hour Time date

[Anonymous]

I have a text file that has a string column with a datetime formatted as "MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm:ss aa" or "02/18/2009 03:30:00 AM"
I am trying to extract the Time and convert it to a 24 Hour Date field.
So far in Tmap I have used the following syntax to extract the time data as a date field but it is still in a 12 hour format. Is there any way to convert it to 24 hour format?

TalendDate.parseDate("HH:mm:ss aa",TalendDate.formatDate("HH:mm:ss aa",TalendDate.parseDate("MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm:ss aa",row2.Last_Connect)))

Hi
I got this to work :-
Input column - 'Date' datatype
Input column date pattern = "MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss a"
Input value = 02/18/2009 11:30:00 PM
tMap expression variable var1 - 'Date' datatype
Output column - 'Date' datatype
Output column date pattern = "MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm:ss"
Output value = 02/18/2009 23:30:00
HTH

Thanks but when the input data type is String this does not seem to work. Any other suggestions?

It seems that no matter what I try use Talend.ParseDate against a STRING in the format of "MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm:ss aa" or "2/12/2009 02:12:00 PM" it converts the date to AM.
I have tried this numerous ways. Am I missing something?

TalendDate.parseDate("MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm:ss aa",row2.Last_Connect)

Hi,
Try :-
Input column - 'String' datatype
Input value = 02/18/2009 11:30:00 PM
tMap expression variable var1 - 'Date' datatype
Expression = new Date(row2.Last_Connect)
Output column - 'Date' datatype
Output column date pattern = "MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm:ss"
Output value = 02/18/2009 23:30:00

Hi srikant.panda57,

TalendDate.getPartOfDate("HOUR",TalendDate.parseDate("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss",TalendDate.formatDate("yyyy-MM-dd hh:mm:ss",row1.HOUR)))

Could you please give us your input column? Is it "Date" type?
Elaborating your case with an example with input and expected output values will be preferred.

The method should be: TalendDate.getPartOfDate(String, Date):int
