Put the current date and time in a string

I am having trouble trying to put the current date and time from my Calendar object into a string
any ideas?

Calendar timeCal = Calendar.getInstance();
timeCal.setTime(new Date(System.currentTimeMillis() - startTime ));
String date = formatToTwoDigits(timeCal.get(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY)) + ":" +
formatToTwoDigits(timeCal.get(Calendar.MINUTE)) + ":" +
formatToTwoDigits(timeCal.get(Calendar.SECOND));
private String formatToTwoDigits(int i) {
String ret = null;
i = i % 100;
if (i < 10) {
ret = "0" + Integer.toString(i);
} else {
ret = Integer.toString(i);
return ret;
You can figure out yourselve how to display the date, use other Calendar.XXX properties.
Good luck!

Use a formula: =NOW()
Format the cell for Date and Time, with both the Date part and the Time part displayed. Format the two parts as you wish, using the choices in the Inspector's menus.
The cell will update each time the table is recalculated.
(Description is for Numbers '09 (Mac), Numbers for iOS will be similar, but not necessarly identical in details.)

The current time can be determined with a Date object:
Date now = new java.util.Date() ;or if you are interested in the seconds since the epoch:
System.currentTimeMillis() ;If you wanted to print them out:
System.out.println( new java.util.Date() ) ;
System.out.println( System.currentTimeMillis() ) ;Kenny

Wrote the current Date and Time in the backend

HI everyone,
I created a table view, where I display several records. Right now I will add an record to this table, which should be written back in the backend and automaticaly add the current date and time.
But I don´t know to make this. I tried several time with the funktion "now()", but it doesn´t work. So any help for me, to explain how I can display the actual time and then write it back to the backend?
Thanks

we use a crm system. but the BAPI I mentioned was
just to play with. My basis will develop a new API
for the project, that have the requested Inputfields.
But what I tottaly forget was, that there has to be a
field for the time, so thanks for the advice.
No Problem.
I´m still of the opinion , that it should be possible
to add the curret time in a field with the
funcionality of the VC, even there is a way to show a
clock with the current time. My problem is that I
can´t figuer out how to do this.
Therefore you can use the TNow() function (Time functions) and the Now() Function (Date functions). You can cast them to a string and concatenate the string, then you have the date of today with the current time. This string you can format and transfer it as input for your BAPI_ADD_BP for example.
Hope that helps.
Best Regards,
Marcel

I'm trying to display the current date and time on my iPad.

First, I'm not sure this is a valid post to this forum. If not, I'd appreciate knowg in where I can get help.
I have tried several ways to display the current date and time on my iPad. None work. Most things I try give me complier errors but the latest code compiles but won't display the correct time.
Here's the dispatch code in my ViewController.m file:
dispatch_queue_t queue = dispatch_get_global_queue(DISPATCH_QUEUE_PRIORITY_HIGH, 0ul);
    dispatch_async(queue, ^{
        [NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:NSTimeInterval)1.0f target:self selector:@selector(updateLabel:) userInfo:nil repeats:YES];
Here's the updateLabel code: (which never gets executed).
- (void)updateLabel:(id) sender {
    dispatch_sync(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
    NSLog(@"Datefield Update Called");
    NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
    [dateFormatter setDateFormat:@"EEEE, MMMM dd, yyyy 'at' HH:mm ZZZZ"];
    NSDate *dayTime = [NSDate date];
    NSString *formattedDateString = [dateFormatter stringFromDate:dayTime];
        _dateField.text = formattedDateString;
    [self.view addSubview:_dateField];
    NSLog(@"Datefield %@",_dateField.text);

Your code is needlessly complicated and has a few problems:
// These objects should be created only once.
NSTimer *dateAndTimeTimer; (You might need to make this a property with a strong reference).
NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc]init];
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:@"EEEE, MMMMM dd, yyyy 'at' HH:mm ZZZZ"];
// The subview should only be added once.
[self.view addSubview:_dateField];
[self performSelectorOnMainThread:@selector(startDateAndTimeTimer)
                        withObject:nil
                     waitUntilDone:YES];
-(void)startDateAndTimeTimer
    NSTimer *timer = [NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:1
                                                      target:self
                                                    selector:@selector(updateLabel)
                                                    userInfo:nil
                                                     repeats:YES];
    dateAndTimeTimer = timer;
    [[NSRunLoop mainRunLoop] addTimer:dateAndTimeTimer forMode:NSRunLoopCommonModes];
-(void)updateLabel
     NSDate *dateTime = [NSDate date];
     NSString *formattedDataString = [dateFormatter stringFromDate:dateTime];
     _dateField.text = formattedDateString;
     NSLog(@"_dateField.text=%@", _dateField.text);

Get the Current Date and Time of a Location

I have created a windowsPhoneApplication in silverLight 8.1.In my application,I have to upload videos on some server.The Uploading get failed If the Date and Time settings of my device is not the current Date and Time.So How can I get the current date
and time even if the device settings is wrong?

Hi shifana,
Do you know server's time zone? If yes, you can manually translate to the correct time zone.
Otherwise try some online time acquire API.

I have tried this program to print the current time and date,
#include <iostream>

But it show the warning as;
warning C4996: 'ctime': This function or variable may be unsafe. Consider using ctime_s instead.
Can anyone suggest whats wrong with this?

Insert current date and time into Oracle date type field

I have a JDBC current date and time insert into Oracle 9i that almost works. It submits the current date and a fixed time into the Oracle date type field. I am using Tomcat 6.0.20.
For example if I insert the data at 7:24:04 PM on Feb 16, 2010 it will insert as: 16-Feb-2010 12:00:00 AM
The date part works but the time always shows 12:00:00 AM no matter what date or time the data is inserted.
Here is what I have for my JDBC inserts and I also tried something with DateFormat:
PreparedStatement ps; Date mydate = new Date(new java.util.Date().getTime()); //insert statement here.... stmt.setDate(1,mydate);
I also tried:
PreparedStatement ps; java.sql.Timestamp mydate = new java.sql.Timestamp(new java.util.Date().getTime()); SimpleDateFormat fmt = new SimpleDateFormat(.... //insert statement here.... ps.setTimestamp(1,fmt.format(mydate));
Both keep submitting the date into Oracle as 16-Feb-2010 12:00:00 AM
Anyway to get the current date and time? For example if I insert the data at 7:24.04 pm today it should show as 16-Feb-2010 07:24.04 PM in Oracle.

If you want a date and time then use java.sql.Timestamp.

Current date and time

What is the simpliest call in Visual C++ with Measurement Studio to extract the current date and time? I am trying to have such info as 1315032804 for March 28th, 2004 at 1:15 pm. Thanks in advance for your advice.

There are a few options, depending on what format you want the time and what kind of operations you're planning to do with it:
ATL/MFC - CTime::GetCurrentTime
ATL/MFC - COleDateTime::GetCurrentTime
Win32 - GetSystemTime
Win32 - GetLocalTime

Displaying Current Date and Time in JSP

Hi,
I need to insert the current date time in Ms SQL Server Database using jsp page. The format of the code willbe
insert into table(update_date) values ('2007-01-01 10:02:21');
But i am not getting how to display the current date and time ie. 2007-01-01 10:02:21 using jsp.
I have tried using
SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss");
GregorianCalendar cal = new GregorianCalendar();
String dd = sdf.format(cal.getTime());
insert into table(update_date) values (dd);
But it didnot get inserted data.
Can anybody figure out with simple ideas.
Thank You

Why then are you trying to insert the current date on a table?
To show the current date on the JSP you might try
<%=new Date()%>Or the way you had it on your first post with the date formatter and then use the <%=%> tags. Anyway, it seems to me I'm not really understanding what you actually want to do :-p
P.S. NOW() is a MySQL function too, not only MSSQL server (didn't even know it had it too ;-))
mysql> insert into a(up) values (now());
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)
mysql> select * from a;

Hello,
You can simply use

You can also do more complex things with this.
Text(Now(),"hh:mm:ss a/p")
