Thread: date problem

Hello,
For my Java class I have to output the date in multiple formats. So I was going to start very simple and came up with the following code
[code]
import java.util.Date;
import java.text.*;

public class TestDate {

public static void main(String[] args) {

Date date1 = new Date();

SimpleDateFormat for1 = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy/MM/dd");
SimpleDateFormat for2 = new SimpleDateFormat("MM/dd/yy");

System.out.println("yyyy/MM/dd");
System.out.println(for1.format(date1));
System.out.println("MM/dd/yy");
System.out.println(for2.format(date1));

}

}
[\code]

I am using Eclipse and the output is

MM/dd/yy
10/15/18

I was expecting

yyyy/MM/dd
2018/10/15
MM/dd/yy
10/15/18

I don't have any errors and I notice that when I click the run button, the output console flashes. It's very fast, but it looks like it initially flashes my intended output.
Any ideas as to what is happening?

A few times. With different variations of commenting out the System.out.println statements. For example

System.out.println("yyyy/MM/dd");
System.out.println(for1.format(date1));
System.out.println("MM/dd/yy");
// System.out.println(for2.format(date1));

So maybe somethings wrong with my install of Eclipse?

I feel pretty confident that it's the exact code. I selected all, and copied it to this forum.
I have another computer. I'll try installing Eclipse on it, and copy and paste to it, to see if it works.

So, reinstalling did the trick. I don't see where I do this, but how do I mark this as solved?
