One simply way to convert a Long time stamp into a formatted string is (time<\/em> paramter is Long timestamp):<\/p>\n

\r\nDate date = new Date(time);\r\nFormat format = new SimpleDateFormat(\"yyyy MM dd HH:mm:ss\");\r\nreturn format.format(date);\r\n<\/pre>\n
\nThese packages must be included.<\/p>\n
\r\nimport java.sql.Date;\r\nimport java.text.Format;\r\nimport java.text.SimpleDateFormat;\r\n<\/pre>\n
Date and Time Patterns<\/h4>\n
\nDate and time formats are specified by date and time pattern<\/em> strings. Within date and time pattern strings, unquoted letters from 'A'<\/code> to 'Z'<\/code> and from 'a'<\/code> to 'z'<\/code> are interpreted as pattern letters representing the components of a date or time string. Text can be quoted using single quotes ('<\/code>) to avoid interpretation. \"''\"<\/code> represents a single quote.
\nAll other characters are not interpreted; they’re simply copied into the output string during formatting or matched against the input string during parsing.\n<\/p>\n
The following pattern letters are defined (all other characters from 'A'<\/code> to 'Z'<\/code> and from 'a'<\/code> to 'z'<\/code> are reserved):<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
