Please, I need current year. If I use Date.getYear(), JBuilder  write '
getYear is deprecated. Seek for better solution' .  If run my application, I
get a wrong year. Please, can you help me?

Well, did you seek for a better solution?  The API documentation for the
getYear method tells you what to use as an alternative: "As of JDK version
1.1, replaced by Calendar.get(Calendar.YEAR) - 1900."

Something like this (untested) should work.

    Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
    calendar.setTime(new Date());
    int year = Calendar.get(Calendar.YEAR) - 1900;

If you only want to get current year
you can try this.
     Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
     calendar.setTime(new Date());
     int year = calendar.get(Calendar.YEAR) ;
