Question

I am using SimpleDateFormat to display a Calendar like this :

public String getDate()
{
    String DATE_FORMAT = "EEEE, dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm:ss";
    SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat(DATE_FORMAT);
    System.err.println(date.getTime().getMonth());
    return sdf.format(date.getTime());
}

The shell returns 6 and the display : mardi, 06/07/2010 12:44:52

It can’t be possible ? Why ?

Thanks

Answer 1

From the Java API:

public int getMonth()

Returns a number representing the month that contains or begins with the instant in time represented by this Date object. The value returned is between 0 and 11, with the value 0 representing January.
