I am working in a java swing application. In that application i have to take time input from user. I need to make a JSpinner for the time, only in the hh:mm am/pm format. i searched in properties but could not get this format.

Please suggest me some way to display time in hh:mm am/pm format. I thank to all your valuable suggestions.

You can set an editor and a date model like this:

SpinnerDateModel model = new SpinnerDateModel();
model.setCalendarField(Calendar.MINUTE);

spinner= new JSpinner();
spinner.setModel(model);
spinner.setEditor(new JSpinner.DateEditor(spinner, "h:mm a"));
