Date Formatting

[Tony Evans]

I need to format todays Date and time as

Todays Date YYYYMMDD

Todays Time HHMMSS

Can someone give me an example of this or point to a web page with some good easy to follow examples.

Thanks Tony

SimpleDateFormat

More specifically (you should alse read the SimpleDateFormat documentation):

Date curDateTime = new Date(); // Gets current date-time
SimpleDateFormat sdfDate = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyyMMdd"); // Creates a SimpleDateFormat object with appropriate date pattern.
SimpleDateFormat sdfTime = new SimpleDateFormat("HHmmss"); // Creates a SimpleDateFormat object with appropriate time pattern.
System.out.println("Todays Date " + sdfDate.format(curDateTime)); // Prints at the console the date with appropriate format.
System.out.println("Todays Time " + sdfTime.format(curDateTime)); // Prints at the console the time with appropriate format.

I think Bernhard meant something like:
