If you need to get today’s date in Java, then you can do one of the following:
Option 1 – Using LocalDate
import java.time.LocalDate;
public class GetTodayDate {
public static void main(String[] args) {
LocalDate todaysDate = LocalDate.now();
System.out.println(todaysDate);
}
}
Option 2 – Using Calendar and SimpleDateFormat
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
import java.util.Calendar;
import java.util.Date;
public class GetTodayDate {
public static void main(String[] args) {
SimpleDateFormat dtf = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy/MM/dd");
Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
Date dateObj = calendar.getTime();
String formattedDate = dtf.format(dateObj);
System.out.println(formattedDate);
}
}
Option 3 – Using java.sql.Date
import java.sql.Date;
public class GetTodayDate {
public static void main(String[] args) {
long miliseconds = System.currentTimeMillis();
Date date = new Date(miliseconds);
System.out.println(date);
}
}
