Locale class and DateFormat class is used to display time different Country Format.
The DateFormat class in Java is used for formatting dates. A specified date can be formatted into the Data/Time string. For example, a date can be formatted into: mm/dd/yyyy. Date Format classes are not synchronized. A Locale object logically consists of the fields like languages, script, country, variant, extensions.
The Java Locale class object represents a specific geographic, cultural, or political region.
Code:
// Java Program to Display Time in Different Country Format
import java.text.DateFormat;
import java.util.*;
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
{
Date d1 = new Date();
// creating a new locale for England Format
Locale locEngland = new Locale("en", "ch");
// initializing the date formatter and converting
// the date
DateFormat de = DateFormat.getDateInstance(
DateFormat.FULL, locEngland);
System.out.println("England Format: "
+ de.format(d1));
// creating a new locale for Italian Format
Locale locItalian = new Locale("it", "ch");
// initializing the date formatter and converting
// the date
DateFormat di = DateFormat.getDateInstance(
DateFormat.FULL, locItalian);
System.out.println("Italian Format: "
+ di.format(d1));
// creating a new locale for Russian Format
Locale locRussian = new Locale("ru", "ch");
// initializing the date formatter and converting
// the date
DateFormat dr = DateFormat.getDateInstance(
DateFormat.FULL, locRussian);
System.out.println("Russian Format: "
+ dr.format(d1));
// creating a new locale for French Format
Locale locFrench = new Locale("fr", "ch");
// initializing the date formatter and converting
// the date
DateFormat df = DateFormat.getDateInstance(
DateFormat.FULL, locFrench);
System.out.println("French Format: "
+ df.format(d1));
// creating a new locale for Spanish Format
Locale locSpanish = new Locale("es", "ch");
// initializing the date formatter and converting
// the date
DateFormat ds = DateFormat.getDateInstance(
DateFormat.FULL, locSpanish);
System.out.println("Spanish Format: "
+ ds.format(d1));
// creating a new locale for chinese Format
Locale locChinese = new Locale("cn", "ch");
// initializing the date formatter and converting
// the date
DateFormat dc = DateFormat.getDateInstance(
DateFormat.FULL, locChinese);
