How to convert TimeStamp to Date in Java?

Question

How do I convert 'timeStamp' to date after I get the count in java?

My current code is as follows:

public class GetCurrentDateTime {

    public int data() {
        int count = 0;
        java.sql.Timestamp timeStamp = new Timestamp(System.currentTimeMillis());
        java.sql.Date date = new java.sql.Date(timeStamp.getTime()); 
        System.out.println(date);
        //count++;

        try {
            Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");
            Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/pro", "root", "");

            PreparedStatement statement = con.prepareStatement("select * from orders where status='Q' AND date=CURDATE()");
            ResultSet result = statement.executeQuery();
            while (result.next()) {
                // Do something with the row returned.
                count++; //if the first col is a count.
            }
        } catch (Exception exc) {
            System.out.println(exc.getMessage());
        }

        return count;
    }
}

This is my database:

Here the output I got was 2012-08-07 0, but the equivalent query returns 3. Why do I get 0?

Just make a new Date object with the stamp's getTime() value as a parameter.

Here's an example (I use an example timestamp of the current time):

Timestamp stamp = new Timestamp(System.currentTimeMillis());
Date date = new Date(stamp.getTime());
System.out.println(date);
