hi all,
i am having a problem with my GregorianCalendar which is a month off
(ahead)
code excerpt is
GregorianCalendar c1 = new GregorianCalendar();
c1.set(2008,8,23);
Date caldate = c1.getTime();
System.out.println( "caldate =" + caldate);
output is
caldate =Tue Sep 23 11:41:10 EDT 2008
i expect to see Sat Aug 23, 2008
it is always a month ahead - ???

I think the javadoc of the set method is pretty clear. 0 = January. So
August is 7 not 8. To make your code clearly, you should use:
the constant java.util.Calendar.AUGUST instead of the constant 7.
See
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/util/Calendar.h tml#set(int,%20int,%20int)
