We can convert Date to Timestamp in java using constructor of java.sql.Timestamp class.

The constructor of Timestamp class receives long value as an argument. So you need to convert date into long value using getTime() method of java.util.Date class.

You can also format the output of Timestamp using java.text.SimpleDateFormat class.

Constructor of Timestamp class:

 

Timestamp(long l)  

getTime() method of Date class:

 

public long getTime()

import java.util.Date;    
 public class DateToTimestampExample1 {    
       public static void main(String args[]){    
                Date date = new Date();  
                Timestamp ts=new Timestamp(date.getTime());  
                System.out.println(ts);                     
        }

You can format the Timestamp value using SimpleDateFormat class. Let's see the example of display Timestamp value without milliseconds.

import java.sql.Timestamp;    
import java.util.Date;    
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;  
 public class DateToTimestampExample2 {    
       public static void main(String args[]){    
                Date date = new Date();  
                Timestamp ts=new Timestamp(date.getTime());  
                SimpleDateFormat formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss");  
                System.out.println(formatter.format(ts));                     
        }    
}

 

Output:

2017-11-02 02:04:03
