Format date with DateFormat.SHORT in Java
DateFormat.SHORT is a constant for short style pattern.
Firstly, we will create date object
Date dt = new Date(); DateFormat dateFormat;
Let us format date for different locale with DateFormat.SHORT
// FRENCH dateFormat = DateFormat.getDateInstance(DateFormat.SHORT, Locale.FRENCH); // GERMANY dateFormat = DateFormat.getDateInstance(DateFormat.SHORT, Locale.GERMANY);
The following is an example −
Example
import java.text.DateFormat;
import java.util.Date;
import java.util.Locale;
public class Demo {
public static void main(String args[]) {
Date dt = new Date();
DateFormat dateFormat;
// Date Format SHORT constant
dateFormat = DateFormat.getDateInstance(DateFormat.SHORT, Locale.FRENCH);
System.out.println("Locale FRENCH = " + dateFormat.format(dt));
dateFormat = DateFormat.getDateInstance(DateFormat.SHORT, Locale.GERMANY);
System.out.println("Locale GERMANY = " + dateFormat.format(dt));
dateFormat = DateFormat.getDateInstance(DateFormat.SHORT, Locale.CHINESE);
System.out.println("Locale CHINESE = " + dateFormat.format(dt));
dateFormat = DateFormat.getDateInstance(DateFormat.SHORT, Locale.CANADA);
System.out.println("Locale CANADA = " + dateFormat.format(dt));
dateFormat = DateFormat.getDateInstance(DateFormat.SHORT, Locale.ITALY);
System.out.println("Locale ITALY = " + dateFormat.format(dt));
dateFormat = DateFormat.getDateInstance(DateFormat.SHORT, Locale.TAIWAN);
System.out.println("Locale TAIWAN = " + dateFormat.format(dt));
}
}Output
Locale FRENCH = 22/11/18 Locale GERMANY = 22.11.18 Locale CHINESE = 18-11-22 Locale CANADA = 22/11/18 Locale ITALY = 22/11/18 Locale TAIWAN = 2018/11/22
