Constructing a Date from a long

[Barry Brashear]

Can someone show me an example of constructing a Date class from a long?
What would the long value look like for say a time of 1:45 PM?

Thanks.

long ms = 12345678910L
Date d = new Date(ms);

The value of the long is

the specified number of milliseconds since the standard base time known as "the epoch", namely January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 GMT.
