java.util.Date - Deleting three months from a date?

Question

I have a date of type java.util.Date

I want to subtract three months from it.

Not finding a lot of joy in the API.

Answer 1

You want today - 3 Month formatted as dd MMMM yyyy

     SimpleDateFormat format = new SimpleDateFormat("dd MMMM yyyy");

     Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance(); 
     c.setTime(new Date()); 
     c.add(Calendar.MONTH, -3);

     Date d = c.getTime();
     String res = format.format(d);

     System.out.println(res);

So this code can do the job ;)
