Answer 1

Try the following code segment:

        Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance();
        c.setTimeInMillis(Long.parseLong(val));         
        Date d = (Date) c.getTime();        
        SimpleDateFormat format = new SimpleDateFormat("dd/MM/yyyy");       
        String time = format.format(d);//this variable time contains the time in the format of "day/month/year".
