Using the Calendar

Hi I'm using the last version of the Sun Java Wirelless Toolkit (2.5).

I am writing an application and I need to get the system date and time.

I have tried with this:

calendar = Calendar.getInstance(TimeZone.getTimeZone("GMT-05:00"));

calendar.setTime(new Date());

// to convert the current date to an String

int year = calendar.get(Calendar.YEAR);

int month = calendar.get(Calendar.MONTH) + 1;

int day = calendar.get(Calendar.DATE);

date = (month<10? "0": "")+ month+"/"+(day<10? "0": "") + day + "/" + (year<10? "0": "")+year;

// to convert the current time to an String

String[] AMPM = {"AM", "PM"};

int hour = calendar.get(Calendar.HOUR);

int minute = calendar.get(Calendar.MINUTE);

String am_pm = (AMPM[calendar.get(Calendar.AM_PM)]);

time = (hour + ":" + minute + am_pm);

but this code give me the time but one hour less.

Can someone send me a code that works or figure out what happen with this ?
