date - Java SimpleDateFormat parsing issue -


i'm trying parse date string got out of website in java using simpledateformat class, goes wrong , can't figure out why.

the date strings come in following syntax:

"13:37 - tue 28-jun-2011" 

so tried doing following:

simpledateformat dateformat = new simpledateformat("hh:mm - eee dd-mmm-yyyy"); parseposition pos = new parseposition(0);    date d = dateformat.parse("13:37 - tue 28-jun-2011", pos); 

as said before, doesn't work; when print

system.out.println(pos.geterrorindex()); 

it prints "8", assume means error somewhere around eee part. i've tried different permutations nothing worked. doing wrong?

thanks
