Re: Deprecation of java.util.Date methods

I'm a bit confused, I am using the java.util.Date as follows and it works fine in JDK 1.1.7B and jsdk2.1. How would I change this to make it current since java.util.Data is interacting with Calendar?

Note: I would have posted seperately, but for some reason most of my posts don't go through.
 
 Calendar calendar1;
 SimpleDateFormat formatter1;
 java.util.Date todaysDate;
 
 // Format todaysDate
 calendar1 = Calendar.getInstance();
 formatter1 = new SimpleDateFormat("MM/dd/yy");
 formatter1.setTimeZone(java.util.TimeZone.getDefault());  // bug fix so not PST & is CST
 todaysDate = calendar1.getTime();

Hello Everyone,
Can anyone tell me what is new method for replacing the following:
 
java.util.Date myDate = new java.util.Date();
String myString = myDate.getHours() + myDate.getMinutes() + myDate.getSeconds();
 
I am using jdk1.2.2 . There is a warning that these methods has been deprecated. I was unable to find anything on this deprecation at sun's site.
 
Thanks,
 
*Antonio*
