use .....

import java.util.Calendar

import java.util.Date;

import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;

and do something like .....

Calendar myCal;

public Date getDate(){

myCal = Calendar.getInstance();

Date d = myCal.getTime();

return d;

}

System.out.println("Current time- "+(new SimpleDateFormat("MMM dd hh:mma")).format(d));

and to get the format just right look here...

If you don't care about the precise format you can do it in very little code:

public class ShowDate {

public static void main(String[] argv) {

System.out.println(new java.util.Date());

}
