Calendar.getInstance cannot be resolved to a type

I am trying to read calendar events by specifying the date selection on query. No matter why I do I get error "Calendar.getInstance cannot be resolved to a type" on this line:

Calendar c_start= new Calendar.getInstance();

This is weird because I do import the java.util.Calendar;

Here is my code

package com.authorwjf.calsample;


import java.text.Format;
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat; 

import android.util.Log;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.text.format.DateFormat;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.View.OnClickListener;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.TextView;
import android.provider.CalendarContract;
import android.content.DialogInterface;
import android.database.Cursor;

import java.util.Calendar;

    @Override
    public void onClick(View v) {
        TextView tv = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.data);
        String title = "N/A";
        Long start = 0L;
        switch(v.getId()) {
        case R.id.next:
            if(!mCursor.isLast()) mCursor.moveToNext();
            break;
        case R.id.previous:
            if(!mCursor.isFirst()) mCursor.moveToPrevious();
            break;
        }
        Format df = DateFormat.getDateFormat(this);
        Format tf = DateFormat.getTimeFormat(this);
        try {
            title = mCursor.getString(0);
            start = mCursor.getLong(1);
        } catch (Exception e) {
            //ignore
        }
        tv.setText(title+" בתאריך "+df.format(start)+" בשעה "+tf.format(start));
    }


}

Calendar follow Singleton design patten, then the costructor of the object is called by getInstace() method, this is why you must remove new keyword when you instance the object. Final code : Calendar c_start = Calendar.getInstance();

change your code from.. 

Calendar c_start= new Calendar.getInstance();

to 

Calendar c_start= Calendar.getInstance();

because Calendar.getInstance() return an object of calendar..

You have to simply change from

Calendar c_start= new Calendar.getInstance();

to

Calendar c_start = Calendar.getInstance();

Means you have to just remove new keyword.

If you are really using this:

Calendar c_start= new Calendar.getInstance();

Then remove the new keyword and it will work
