Thread: Date format problem

dear sir,
i am getting date in 'yyyy-mm-dd' format when i use
rs.getDate() method. i want it to be in 'dd/mm/yyyy'
format.
'select current_timestamp' is giving 'dd/mm/yyyy' in
psql.
how to change to 'dd/mm/yyyy' format in java
programme? thanks in advance.

This is the format that the Date class' toString() method uses, so this is
an application thing, not a driver property.  See
java.text.SimpleDateFormat.
