Converting java date to Sql timestamp

I am trying to insert java.util.Date after converting it to java.sql.Timestamp and I am using the following snippet:

java.util.Date utilDate = new java.util.Date();
java.sql.Timestamp sq = new java.sql.Timestamp(utilDate.getTime());

But this is giving me sq as 2014-04-04 13:30:17.533

Is there any way to get the output without milliseconds?

I suggest using DateUtils from apache.commons library.

long millis = DateUtils.truncate(utilDate, Calendar.MILLISECOND).getTime();
java.sql.Timestamp sq = new java.sql.Timestamp(millis );

Edit: Fixed Calendar.MILISECOND to Calendar.MILLISECOND

You can cut off the milliseconds using a Calendar:

java.util.Date utilDate = new java.util.Date();
Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
cal.setTime(utilDate);
cal.set(Calendar.MILLISECOND, 0);
System.out.println(new java.sql.Timestamp(utilDate.getTime()));
System.out.println(new java.sql.Timestamp(cal.getTimeInMillis()));

Output:

2014-04-04 10:10:17.78
2014-04-04 10:10:17.0

java.util.Date utilDate = new java.util.Date();
java.sql.Date sqlDate = new java.sql.Date(utilDate.getTime());
System.out.println("utilDate:" + utilDate);
System.out.println("sqlDate:" + sqlDate);

This gives me the following output:

 utilDate:Fri Apr 04 12:07:37 MSK 2014
 sqlDate:2014-04-04

The problem is with the way you are printing the Time data

java.util.Date utilDate = new java.util.Date();
java.sql.Timestamp sq = new java.sql.Timestamp(utilDate.getTime());
System.out.println(sa); //this will print the milliseconds as the toString() has been written in that format

SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss");
System.out.println(sdf.format(timestamp)); //this will print without ms

Take a look at SimpleDateFormat:

java.util.Date utilDate = new java.util.Date();
java.sql.Timestamp sq = new java.sql.Timestamp(utilDate.getTime());  

SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("dd.MM.yyyy HH:mm:ss");
System.out.println(sdf.format(sq));
