>How-To-Repeat:
	Compile and run the following...

import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;

public class sdf
{
  protected static String timestampFormat = "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss";

  public static void main(String args[])
  {
    SimpleDateFormat timestampFormatter	= new SimpleDateFormat(timestampFormat);

    System.out.println (timestampFormatter);
  }
}
