Thread: Problem to get hour and minute

Hello,

I am creating an Android application, I inserted a textfields "time" that allows the user to choose a time in the format "hh: mm" (is it also possible to change it in the format "mm: ss "?), and I want to get this hour (and minute) to convert it to milliseconds but I do not know how I can do it ?

Thanks for your help !

Yes, it's the number of milliseconds since the beginning of the Jan 1, 1970. And yes, Android have the same classes as JAVA but I don't know how I can get the number of hours and minutes that the user has chosen. Because the user choose a time in this format "hh:mm"

[code=Java]<EditText
android:id="@+id/temps"
android:layout_width="40dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="10dip"
android:ems="10"
android:inputType="time" />[code]

The problem is there is no year, no month and no day but just a time which is in the Edittext.

--- Update ---

But I think I can use the current day, month and day.

Yes, it's is exactly that I want to do.

Can I do something like that ? I don't know how put the hour and minutes that I want ?

 Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance();
	    		c.set(Calendar.SECOND, 0);
	    		c.set(Calendar.HOUR, ? );
	    		c.set(Calendar.MINUTE, ?);
	    		c.getTimeInMillis();
