获取当前日期是星期几

1、使用Calendar类
/**
* 获取当前日期是星期几<br>
* 
* @param dt
* @return 当前日期是星期几
*/
public static String getWeekOfDate(Date dt) {
String[] weekDays = {"星期日", "星期一", "星期二", "星期三", "星期四", "星期五", "星期六"};
Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
    if(dt != null){        
         cal.setTime(date);      
    }   
int w = cal.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK) - 1;
if (w < 0)
w = 0;
return weekDays[w];
}
------
调用方法
1
public static void main(String[] args){
    //今天是2014-12-25 星期四
    String weekOfDate = null;
    weekOfDate = getWeekOfDate(null);
    System.out.println(weekOfDate);
    //输出 星期四
 
    Date date = new Date();
    date.setDate(24);
    weekOfDate = getWeekOfDate(date);
    System.out.println(weekOfDate);
    //输出 星期三
 }
