回答1:

Use str_to_date function in MySQL.

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/date-and-time-functions.html#function_str-to-date

Format:

mysql> SELECT STR_TO_DATE('01,5,2013','%d,%m,%Y');
    -> '2013-05-01'

Use java.text.DateFormat and java.text.SimpleDateFormat and its parse method. Be sure to setLenient(false).
