convert textView to string

TextView totalHours;
String TotalHours;
totalHours.setText(("Total hours : " + hours + ":" + minutes));

Assume the output is Totalhours :13:25

Now I want to convert the totalHours into String and save 13:25 into MySQL.

 TotalHours=totalHours.getText().toString();
 String[] time= TotalHours.split(":", 2);
 addInformation(time[1]);

Is this the correct way to convert a textView into String ?

I had the same problem, and I tried with this: 

String.valueOf(totalHours.getText());

If the first answer don't work for you, maybe this will help.

TotalHours=totalHours.getText().toString();
String[] time= TotalHours.split(":");
String result= time[1]+time[2];
addInformation(result);

See if it helps.

Best you can directly store your variable hours ,minutes with String conversion.

  hours.toString();

or 

String.valueOf(hours)

Yes. This is the correct way. Getting text from a TextView returns CharSequence. To convert CharSequence to String, toString() function is used.

Or you can directly store time in one string variable and insert it into MySql database.
