javax.el.E​​LException：无法将类型为java.lang.String的2015-12-03 18:50转换为类java.util.Date？

Question

当我使用El表达式的时间值可以正常时，但格式化的时间一直存在问题，

这是我的代码和错误异常

<fmt:formatDate value="${active.expire_time}" pattern="yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm"/>

Answer 1

active.expire_time变量是String，已经格式化了。

但是fmt:formatDate需要Date类型的变量。

或者您可以将active.expire_time转换为日期并显示：

<fmt:parseDate value="${active.expire_time}" pattern="yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm" var="myDate"/>
<fmt:formatDate value="${myDate}" pattern="yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm"/>
