Example:
In the example below, the java.util.Calendar.computeFields() method is used to convert the current millisecond time value time to calendar field values.
import java.util.*;
public class MyClass extends GregorianCalendar {
public static void main(String[] args) {
//creating a Calendar object
MyClass Cal = new MyClass();
//printing the current date
System.out.println("The current date is: " + Cal.getTime());
//set to a new year
Cal.set(Calendar.YEAR, 2015);
System.out.println("The new date is: " + Cal.getTime());
//compute field and print date
Cal.computeFields();
System.out.println("The new date is: " + Cal.getTime());
}
}
The output of the above code will be:
The current date is: Thu Sep 10 05:38:56 UTC 2020 The new date is: Thu Sep 10 05:38:56 UTC 2015 The new date is: Thu Sep 10 05:38:56 UTC 2015
