How can I get Date in MM/DD/YY format from Timestamp

Question

I want to get the Date in MM/DD/YY format from a timestamp.

I have used the below method but it does not gives proper output

final Calen         


        

Answer 1

Better Approach

Simply Use SimpleDateFormat

new SimpleDateFormat("MM/dd/yyyy").format(new Date(timeStampMillisInLong));

---

Mistake in your Approach

DAY_OF_MONTH ,MONTH, .. etc are just constant int value used by Calendar class internally

You can get the date represented by cal by cal.get(Calendar.DATE)
