// SimpleDateFormat can be used to control the date/time display format:
// E (day of week): 3E or fewer (in text xxx), >3E (in full text)
// M (month): M (in number), MM (in number with leading zero)
// 3M: (in text xxx), >3M: (in full text full)
// h (hour): h, hh (with leading zero)
// m (minute)
// s (second)
// a (AM/PM)
// H (hour in 0 to 23)
// z (time zone)
// (there may be more listed under the API - I didn't check)

public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Date now = new Date();
System.out.println("toString(): " + now); // dow mon dd hh:mm:ss zzz yyyy
SimpleDateFormat dateFormatter = new SimpleDateFormat(
"E, y-M-d "at" h:m:s a z");
System.out.println("Format 1: " + dateFormatter.format(now));
dateFormatter = new SimpleDateFormat("E yyyy.MM.dd "at" hh:mm:ss a zzz");
System.out.println("Format 2: " + dateFormatter.format(now));
dateFormatter = new SimpleDateFormat("EEEE, MMMM d, yyyy");
System.out.println("Format 3: " + dateFormatter.format(now));
}
}
运行结果如下:
