Refer to the Cocoa documentation for NSDatePicker and NSDate, in
particular -[NSDatePicker dateValue] and -[NSDate
descriptionWithCalendarFormat:timeZone:locale:]

FWIW, I find AppKiDo particularly convenient for browsing Cocoa class
documentation:

And also i need the sample codes of the xcode (Mac Ruby).

Look in /Developer/Examples/Ruby for Ruby and RubyCocoa examples.
