java.util.GregorianCalendar
GregorianCalendar is a concrete subclass of Calendar and provides the most commonly used standard calendar system. The getInstance() method of Calendar class is used to get the GregorianCalendar object initialized with the current date and time in the default locale and time zone. We can also use new operator with GregorianCalendar class constructor.
Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
or
Calendar calendar = new GregorianCalendar(); |
Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
or
Calendar calendar = new GregorianCalendar();
Note: Gregorian calendar is the only implementation provided for Calendar class in java.
