How to Get Current Date/ System Date(sysdate) in Java

on Wednesday, July 16, 2014
In Java, you can get the current date time via following two classes: 
1. Date
2.Calendar
Moreover,  you can use SimpleDateFormat class to convert the date into user friendly format.

Please refer below code to understand it properly.

                1. Date with SimpleDateFormat Class

                DateFormat dateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm:ss");
Date date = new Date();
String currentDate = dateFormat.format(date);
System.out.println(currentDate);

               2. Calendar with SimpleDateFormat Class

                DateFormat dateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm:ss");
Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
String currentDate=dateFormat.format(cal.getTime());
System.out.println(currentDate);

Also you can use the following code:

                 Calendar cal = null;
              String currentDate = "";
               cal = Calendar.getInstance();
               currentDate = javaCalendar.get(Calendar.DATE) +
                                      "/" + (javaCalendar.get(Calendar.MONTH) + 1) +
                                     "/" + javaCalendar.get(Calendar.YEAR);
 System.out.println(currentDate);
