Getting Current Date into a String (ios)

Hi Lets see the simple code to get current time

    //Get current date

    NSDate *date = [NSDate date];



    // format it

    NSDateFormatter *dateFormat = [[NSDateFormatter alloc]init];

    [dateFormat setDateFormat:@"MMM dd, yyyy"];



    // convert it to a string

    NSString *dateString = [dateFormat stringFromDate:date];

    // free up memory

    [dateFormat release];





    //Try it

    NSLog(@"Todays date is = %@",dateString);




   This is what i got : 

Todays date is = Aug 28, 2012

Cheers
