Getting the exact date of current week and current month

Question

I would like to know is there any methods to know the exact date of the current week and current month?

Answer 1

//use this function like this
//String date = getNow();
public static String getNow()
     Calendar cal = new GregorianCalendar();
     // Get the components of the time
     int hour24 = cal.get(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY); // 0..23
     int min = cal.get(Calendar.MINUTE); // 0..59
     int sec = cal.get(Calendar.SECOND); // 0..59
     // Get the components of the date
     int year = cal.get(Calendar.YEAR); // 2002
     int month = 1 + cal.get(Calendar.MONTH); // 0=Jan, 1=Feb, ...
     int day = cal.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH); // 1...
     String timeStamp = String.valueOf(year) + "-" + addZero(month)+ "-" + addZero(day)
          + " " + addZero(hour24)+ ":" + addZero(min) + ":"+ addZero(sec) + ".0";
     return timeStamp;
public static String addZero(int num)//this function works with the getNow() function
//all it does is adds a zero to an int if its less then ten
     String val = "";
     if(num < 10)
     val +="0"+num;
     }else{
     val = String.valueOf(num);
     return val;
}
