title: How to get the current month from Date
body: <p>I need to convert a long value to any date. Next I want the month written out, converted as String. I wanna display the Month on a TextView. </p>
  
  <p>I've tried:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Date dt = new Date();
  Calendar cal= Calendar.getInstance();
  cal.setTime(dt);  //get current time
  
  long dateAsLong = calendar.getTimeInMillis(); // get currentTime as long
  
  CalendarView.setDate(dateAsLong); // give the view CalendarView the current date 
  
  
  TextView tv= (TextView) findViewById(R.id.TextViewDate);
  tv.setText(String.valueOf(dateAsLong)); // &lt;-- but this is wrong
  </code></pre>
