      I haven't used Java for a while. My company is moving from .NET to Java, so I downloaded the most recent version of J2SE (5.0). I hate it already. How do I build a string as time stamp based on the current time? The format I want is: yyyyMMddHHmmss (i.e. year, month, day, hour, minute, second) With .NET, I need only to do this: string sTimestamp = DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyyMMddHHmmss"); Here is what I have to do in Java: GregorianCalendar oCal = new GregorianCalendar(); int nYear = oCal.get(Calendar.YEAR); int nMonth = oCal.get(Calendar.MONTH); int nDay = oCal.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH); int nAMPM = oCal.get(Calendar.AM_PM); int nHour = nAMPM>0?(oCal.get(Calendar.HOUR)+12):oCal.get(Calendar.HOUR); int nMinute = oCal.get(Calendar.MINUTE); int nSecond = oCal.get(Calendar.SECOND); String sTimestamp = new Integer(nYear).toString()+ (nMonth<9?("0"+new Integer(nMonth+1).toString()):new Integer(nMonth+1).toString())+ (nDay<10?("0"+new Integer(nDay).toString()):new Integer(nDay).toString())+ (nHour<10?("0"+new Integer(nHour).toString()):new Integer(nHour).toString())+ (nMinute<10?("0"+new Integer(nMinute).toString()):new Integer(nMinute).toString())+ (nSecond<10?("0"+new Integer(nSecond).toString()):new Integer(nSecond).toString()); Note that the month value returned by oCal.get(Calendar.MONTH) is 0 based, unlike all the other fields. What the ****? :mad:

                I think there are versions of the CLR which will run on linux.
