So where is the long datatype here. I could see only string data type. So it literally means that both the questions share the same idea. YOu have not shown any point which shows a long data type. — Andro Selva, Aug 01 '12 at 08:53

Refer Below code which give the date in String form.

import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
import java.util.Date;



public class Test{

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        long val = 1346524199000l;
        Date date=new Date(val);
        SimpleDateFormat df2 = new SimpleDateFormat("dd/MM/yy");
        String dateText = df2.format(date);
        System.out.println(dateText);
    }
}

Date date=new Date(1346524199000l); it will always give year 1970 – JosephM Mar 31 '17 at 12:30

Anyone who is having 1970 date from this code, please check your timestamp is in miliseconds. A timestamp for recent years should have 13 digits in it. If yours has 10 that means, you need to multiply by 1000. – Anuj Garg Feb 29 '20 at 18:37

Refer below code for formatting date

long strDate1 = 1346524199000;
Date date = new Date(strDate1);

try {
        SimpleDateFormat format = new SimpleDateFormat("EEE, dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss z");
        SimpleDateFormat df2 = new SimpleDateFormat("dd/MM/yy");
        date = df2.format(format.parse("yourdate");
    } catch (java.text.ParseException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

Try this example

 String[] formats = new String[] {
   "yyyy-MM-dd",
   "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm",
   "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mmZ",
   "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.SSSZ",
   "yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSSZ",
 };
 for (String format : formats) {
   SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat(format, Locale.US);
   System.err.format("%30s %s\n", format, sdf.format(new Date(0)));
   sdf.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getTimeZone("UTC"));
   System.err.format("%30s %s\n", format, sdf.format(new Date(0)));
 }

Try something like this:

public class test 
{  

    public static void main(String a[])
    {  
        long tmp = 1346524199000;  

        Date d = new Date(tmp);  
        System.out.println(d);  
    }  
}
