Find date in java

[Allan.d]

Does any one know the code to find date in java? I know by using getTimeInMillis() method of java we can find the difference between two dates but need to know the exact code and syntax to find date?

Try this code to find date in java :

import java.util.Calendar;
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
 
public class date
{
  public static final String date = "dd-MM-yyyy HH:mm:ss";
                                                 
	
	{
     Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
     SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat(date);
       return sdf.format(date.getTime());
    }
 
 
	public static void main(String[] args)
    {
 
 
  
     Calendar cl = Calendar.getInstance();       
     String timeZone =  cl.getTimeZone().getDisplayName();
 
	 System.out.println("timeZone is : " + timeZone );
 
	
 
	 System.out.println("Current Time in MiliSeconds  : " + cl.getTimeInMillis() );
 
 
	
 
       //Calendar cl = Calendar.getInstance();
      SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat(date);
 
     String time=sdf.format(cl.getTime());
 
 
     System.out.println(time);
    // System.out.println("Now : " + Example.now());
 
    }
 }

import java.text.*;
import java.util.*;
public class Dtest {
  public static void main(String args[]) {
    SimpleDateFormat dt = (SimpleDateFormat)
      DateFormat.getDateInstance(DateFormat.SHORT);
    System.out.println("find date in java  " + dt.toPattern());
    Locale loc = Locale.ITALY;
    dt = (SimpleDateFormat)
      DateFormat.getDateInstance(DateFormat.SHORT, loc);
    System.out.println("date format is  " + dt.toPattern());
  }
}

import java.util.Calendar;

public class date {

    public static void main(String[] args) {

        Calendar date1 = Calendar.getInstance();
        Calendar date2 = Calendar.getInstance();

        // Set the date for both of the calendar to get difference
    date1.set(2008, 07, 27);
        date2.set(2009, 05, 15);

        // Get date in milliseconds
        long milisecond1 = date1.getTimeInMillis();
        long milisecond2 = date2.getTimeInMillis();

        // Find date difference in milliseconds
        long diffInMSec = milisecond2 - milisecond1;

        // Find date difference in days 
        // (24 hours 60 minutes 60 seconds 1000 millisecond)
        long diffOfDays = diffInMSec / (24 * 60 * 60 * 1000);

        System.out.println("find date in jsva : " + diffOfDays + " days.");

    }
}
