Can

Answer 1

• int getYear() Deprecated. As of JDK version 1.1, replaced by Calendar.get(Calendar.YEAR) - 1900.

• int getMonth() Deprecated. As of JDK version 1.1, replaced by Calendar.get(Calendar.MONTH).

• int getDay() Deprecated. As of JDK version 1.1, replaced by Calendar.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK).

Hence use :

Date date = new Date(Calendar.get(Calendar.YEAR) - 1900, Calendar.get(Calendar.MONTH), Calendar.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK));
