Converting Date Object to Calendar Object

[jrhitokiri]

I'm working on a wicket project, and I'm kinda stumped here on trying to get the components of the date. Thing is, I don't want to use deprecated code, so I decided on using Calendar instead.

For instance I have the following code:

Date d = (Date) dateModel.getObject(); //generic Date.
...
Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
...
System.out.println(" " + month + " " + day + " " + year);

How do I convert it to Calendar so I could just use something like this?

year = cal.YEAR;
month = cal.MONTH;
...

kind regards
JR
