  public static void main(String args[]) {
    Date date = new Date();
    DateFormat dtFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd");

    final String strDate = dtFormat.format(date);
    LocalDate lDate = LocalDate.parse(strDate);

    int dd = lDate.getDayOfMonth();

    Month mon = lDate.getMonth();

    int yyyy = lDate.getYear();

    System.out.println("Day  : " + dd);
    System.out.println("Month: " + mon);
    System.out.println("Year : " + yyyy);
  }
}
