Java GregorianCalendar - computeFields() Method
The java.util.GregorianCalendar.computeFields() method is used to convert the time value (millisecond offset from the Epoch) to calendar field values. The time is not recomputed first; to recompute the time, then the fields, call the complete method.
Syntax
protected void computeFields()
Parameters
No parameter is required.
Return Value
void type.
Exception
NA.
Example:
In the example below, the java.util.GregorianCalendar.computeFields() method is used to convert the time value (millisecond offset from the Epoch) to given 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(GregorianCalendar.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: Tue Sep 08 07:07:04 UTC 2020 The new date is: Tue Sep 08 07:07:04 UTC 2015 The new date is: Tue Sep 08 07:07:04 UTC 2015
