Remarks

Creates a string representation of this Date object in an implementation-dependent form. The intent is that the form should be familiar to the user of the Java application, wherever it may happen to be running. The intent is comparable to that of the "%c" format supported by the strftime() function of ISO C.

This member is deprecated. As of JDK version 1.1, replaced by DateFormat.format(Date date).
