Change date formatting symbols in Java
For date formatting symbols, use the DateFormatSymbols class.Firstly, set weekdays using a string arrayString[] weekDays2 = { "", "monday", "tuesday", "wednesday", "thursday", "friday", "saturday", "sunday" };Now, set short week days withDateFormatSymbols mySymbols = new DateFormatSymbols(); mySymbols.setShortWeekdays(weekDays2);Get the date −dateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("EEEE, dd MMM yyyy", mySymbols); System.out.println(dateFormat.format(new Date()));The following is an example −Exampleimport java.text.SimpleDateFormat; import java.text.DateFormat; import java.text.DateFormatSymbols; import java.util.Date; public class Demo { public static void main(String[] args) { String[] weekDays1 = { "", "Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday", "Sunday" }; String[] weekDays2 = { "", "monday", "tuesday", "wednesday", "thursday", "friday", ...

Read MoreChecks if two calendar objects represent the same local time in Java
Use the == operator to compare two calendar objects.Let us first create the first calendar object and set date −Calendar date1 = Calendar.getInstance(); date1.set(Calendar.YEAR, 2040); date1.set(Calendar.MONTH, 10); date1.set(Calendar.DATE, 25); date1.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, 11); date1.set(Calendar.MINUTE, 30); date1.set(Calendar.SECOND, 10);Now, the following is the second calendar object −Calendar date2 = Calendar.getInstance(); date2.set(Calendar.YEAR, 2040); date2.set(Calendar.MONTH, 10); date2.set(Calendar.DATE, 25); date2.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, 11); date2.set(Calendar.MINUTE, 30); date2.set(Calendar.SECOND, 10);Let is now compare them using == and && operators −if(date1.get(Calendar.SECOND) == date2.get(Calendar.SECOND) && date1.get(Calendar.MINUTE) == date2.get(Calendar.MINUTE) && date1.get(Calendar.HOUR) == date2.get(Calendar.HOUR) && date1.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_YEAR) == date2.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_YEAR) && date1.get(Calendar.YEAR) == date2.get(Calendar.YEAR) ) { System.out.println("The local time for the calendar objects is same..."); } ...
