Calendar class time month not matching

Question

Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance();

System.out.println("Mili->>" + c.getTimeInMillis());

System.out.println("Month  ->>" + Calendar.MO         


        

Answer 1

You're getting calendar c from an instance but calendar from month with the Calendar object, get it from the instance too.

Also - Calendar starts from 0 as referenced here

In other news, use the new DateTime API in Java 8 or JODA time, they're much nicer.

Answer 2

What you want is the following idiom: c.get(Calendar.MONTH).

Calendar.MONTH per se is just an internal constant and will (hopefully) always return 2.

Example

// We're in June at the time of writing
// Months are 0-based so June == 5
Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance();
System.out.println(Calendar.MONTH);
System.out.println(c.get(Calendar.MONTH));

Output

2
5

Answer 3

You are displaying the value of the Calendar.MONTH constant, hence 2.
