Below programs illustrate the working of internalGet() Method of Calendar class:
Example 1:
// Java code to illustrate// internalGet() method  import java.util.*;  public class CalendarDemo    extends GregorianCalendar {    public static void main(String args[])    {          // Creating a new calendar        CalendarDemo calndr = new CalendarDemo();          // Displaying the Current date        System.out.println("The current date is: "                           + calndr.getTime());          // Getting the Month        System.out.println("Month is: "                           + calndr                                 .internalGet(MONTH));          // Getting the Year        System.out.println("Year is: "                           + calndr                                 .internalGet(YEAR));    }} |
Output:
The current date is: Wed Feb 20 16:11:36 UTC 2019 Month is: 1 Year is: 2019
Example 2:
// Java code to illustrate// internalGet() method  import java.util.*;  public class Calendar_Demo    extends GregorianCalendar {    public static void main(String args[])    {        // Creating a calendar object        Calendar_Demo calndr = new Calendar_Demo();          // Displaying the current date        System.out.println("Calendar: "                           + calndr                                 .getTime());          // Displaying the year        System.out.println("Year: "                           + calndr                                 .internalGet(YEAR));          // Displaying the month        System.out.println("Month: "                           + calndr                                 .internalGet(MONTH));          // Displaying other credentials        System.out.println("Day: "                           + calndr                                 .internalGet(DAY_OF_WEEK));    }} |
Output:
Calendar: Thu Feb 21 09:43:53 UTC 2019 Year: 2019 Month: 1 Day: 5
