Code snippet:

import java.text.DateFormatSymbols;
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
import java.util.Date;

public class AMPM {
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		Date d1 = new Date();
		Date d2 = new Date(d1.getTime() + 12*60*60*1000L);
		SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("hh:mm a");
		System.out.println(sdf.format(d1));
		System.out.println(sdf.format(d2));
		DateFormatSymbols sym = sdf.getDateFormatSymbols();
		sym.setAmPmStrings(new String[] { "am", "pm" });
		sdf.setDateFormatSymbols(sym);
		System.out.println(sdf.format(d1));
		System.out.println(sdf.format(d2));
	}
}
