How to get day of the month?

Question

I am trying to retrieve which day of the month it is.

Such as today is August 29,2011.

What i would like to do is just get the days number such as 29, or 30.

Answer 1

Take a look at GregorianCalendar, something like:

final Calendar now = GregorianCalendar.getInstance()
final int dayNumber = now.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);
