title: Parse date java
body: <p>How can I parse this date format <code>Mon May 14 2010 00:00:00 GMT+0100 (Afr. centrale Ouest)</code> to this date format <code>05-14-2010</code> I mean <code>mm-dd-yyyy</code></p>
  
  <p>it's telling me this error :</p>
  
  <p><code>java.text.ParseException: Unparseable date: "Mon May 14 2010 00:00:00 GMT+0100 (Afr. centrale Ouest)"</code></p>
  
  <p><strong>EDIT</strong></p>
  
  <pre><code>SimpleDateFormat formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("M-d-yyyy");
  newFirstDate = formatter.parse(""+vo.getFirstDate());  //here the error
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance!</p>
