title: Get Date details (day, month, year) in GWT
body: <p>I need to get the day, month, year details from a <code>Date</code> value but <code>getYear()</code> is deprecated, gives year on 2 digits, and has problems with Y2K (2008 gives 108). The java doc recommends using <code>java.util.calendar</code> but it is not supported in GWT.</p>
  
  <p>I want to avoid sending all the info back and forth between the server and client just to deal with dates.</p>
  
  <p>Edit: <s><code>Calendar</code> might be supported</s> <em>Date handling functions should be implemented</em> in GWT futur versions : <a href="http://code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit/issues/detail?id=603" rel="noreferrer">http://code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit/issues/detail?id=603</a></p>
