Something like :

import java.util.Calendar;

import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JTextField;

public class TestTextField{

public static void main( String[] args ) {
JFrame testFrame = new JFrame( "Test Frame" );
JTextField jTextField3 = new JTextField();
testFrame.setSize( 150, 30 );
jTextField3.setText( now() );
testFrame.add( jTextField3 );
testFrame.setVisible( true );
}

public static final String DateFormat = "HH:mm dd/MM/yyyy";

public static String now(){
Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
SimpleDateFormat format = new SimpleDateFormat(DateFormat);
return format.format(cal.getTime());
}

}

Answer 2

Another way you can do it:

import java.awt.*;
import java.time.*;
import javax.swing.*;

public class DateClass{

LocalDate date = LocalDate.now();

// Constructor
DateClass(){

JFrame frame = new JFrame();

JTextField tf = new JTextField(10);
tf.setText(" "+date);

frame.add(tf);
frame.setLayout(new FlowLayout(FlowLayout.CENTER));

frame.setSize(300,300);
frame.setVisible(true);
frame.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
}

public static void main( String[] args ) {
new DateClass();
}

}
