title: Date formats difference between yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss and yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ssXXX
body: <p>I am trying to parse a date <code>2014-12-03T10:05:59.5646+08:00</code> using these two formats:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li><code>yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss</code></li>
  <li><code>yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ssXXX</code></li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>When I parse using <code>yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss</code> it works fine, but when I parse <code>yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ssXXX</code> a <code>ParseException</code> is thrown.</p>
  
  <p>Which is the correct format to parse the date and also what exactly is the difference between these two formats?</p>
  
  <p>Note : I cannot use Joda :(</p>
