Hi,

Please find the source code for converting current date into MM-dd-yyyy format.

Here is full code:

package net.roseindia;

import java.text.DateFormat;
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
import java.util.Date;
/*
 * This program converts current date into 
 *  MM-dd-yyyy format. You can also change the format
 *  to convert the current date into desired format
 */
public class CurrentDateToString {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        try {
            //Current date to mm-dd-yyyy
            Date currentDate = new Date();
            DateFormat df = new SimpleDateFormat("MM-dd-yyyy");
            //DateFormat df = new SimpleDateFormat("dd-MM-yyyy");
            String strCurrentDate = df.format(currentDate);
            System.out.println("Date is " + strCurrentDate);
        } catch (Exception e) {
            System.out.println("Exception :" + e);
        }

    }
}

Thanks
