I am getting time from server it's like this
12:00PM-3:00PM,7:00PM-10:30PM
This time in 12 Hours format. I applied some operation on this string and I separated all times. Now I have four strings like following
(aftr1=> 12:00PM aftr2=> 3:00PM) (evng1=> 7:00PM evng2=> 10:30PM)
Now I want to convert them in 24 hours time, because I want to check the time which was entered by user it is between afternoon time 12:00pm to 3:00pm or in evening 7:00pm to 10.30pm.
Or any other idea how to complete this task in j2me?
Easy, from 1pm until 11:59pm you add 12 hours. Then from 12:00am until 12:59m you subtract 12 hours.
To accomplish this in J2ME use the String parsing tools as the normal Java utility SimpleDateFormat does not exist in the API.

String date = "12:00PM";
if (date.indexOf("PM")!=-1)//its pm
{
int pmindex = date.indexOf("PM");
int separator=date.indexOf(":");
int hour = Integer.parseInt(date.substring(0, separator));
int minute = Integer.parseInt(date.substring(separator+1,pmindex));
hour = hour+12;
System.out.println("Time is: " + hour);
}
