I have taken the reference of the below 2 link :
But I want the GMT date in milliseconds.
Thanks In Advance.
Solution
Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance(TimeZone.getTimeZone("GMT"));
long time = cal.getTimeInMillis();
OTHER TIPS
You can use System.currentTimeMillis() it returns "the difference, measured in milliseconds, between the current time and midnight, January 1, 1970 UTC."
long time = System.currentTimeMillis();
Will do it :)
Use getTime() function:
Returns the number of milliseconds since January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 GMT represented by this Date object.
Use the Calendar Class to create an instance with GMT as the timezone.
From that you can get the time in milliseconds.
see below code sample.
public class TimeTest {
public static void main(String [] args) {
Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance(TimeZone.getTimeZone("GMT"));
System.out.println(cal.currentTimeMillis());
}
}
Hope this helps.
