The Class Date provides you a specific instant in
time( millisecond) precision. This class enabled you to interprets
allowed dates as year, month, day, hour, minute, and second values and
date formatting and parsing of date string.
Understand with Example
In this Tutorial we want to describe you a code that helps you
in understanding in a Getting Time and Date. For this we have a class
'GetTimeAndDate'.Inside the main method we declared a string variable, formatter
and instantiate a date class.
1)Date ( ) - This is used to instantiate the date
class and allocate the memory to a date object, such that it represent the time
allocated to it in the nearest millisecond.
2)SimpleDateFormat- is a formatting concrete class that
helps you in parsing date in a locale-sensitive manner. This allows you to
format (date -> text), parsing (text -> date), and normalization.
3)format(date) -This method return you a formatted object to a string and
stored in a string variable s.
Finally the System.out .println print the Date, Time and date-time
altogether.
GetTimeAndDate.java
import java.util.*;
import java.text.*;
public class GetTimeAndDate {
public static void main(String args[]) {
String s;
Format formatter;
Date date = new Date();
formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("dd/MMM/yyyy");
s = formatter.format(date);
System.out.println("Date : " + s);
formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("hh:mm:ss a");
s = formatter.format(date);
System.out.println("Time : " + s);
formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("dd MMMM yyyy HH:mm:ss");
s = formatter.format(date);
System.out.println("Time : " + s);
}
}
