这里还有一个使用JavaScript的解决方案。我的解决方案的特点：

将空值处理为无穷大假设下限是包含的，上限是不包含的。附带一系列测试

这些测试基于整数，但由于JavaScript中的日期对象是可比较的，因此您也可以添加两个日期对象。或者您可以输入毫秒时间戳。

代码：

/**
 * Compares to comparable objects to find out whether they overlap.
 * It is assumed that the interval is in the format [from,to) (read: from is inclusive, to is exclusive).
 * A null value is interpreted as infinity
 */
function intervalsOverlap(from1, to1, from2, to2) {
    return (to2 === null || from1 < to2) && (to1 === null || to1 > from2);
}

测验：

describe('', function() {
    function generateTest(firstRange, secondRange, expected) {
        it(JSON.stringify(firstRange) + ' and ' + JSON.stringify(secondRange), function() {
            expect(intervalsOverlap(firstRange[0], firstRange[1], secondRange[0], secondRange[1])).toBe(expected);
        });
    }

    describe('no overlap (touching ends)', function() {
        generateTest([10,20], [20,30], false);
        generateTest([20,30], [10,20], false);

        generateTest([10,20], [20,null], false);
        generateTest([20,null], [10,20], false);

        generateTest([null,20], [20,30], false);
        generateTest([20,30], [null,20], false);
    });

    describe('do overlap (one end overlaps)', function() {
        generateTest([10,20], [19,30], true);
        generateTest([19,30], [10,20], true);

        generateTest([10,20], [null,30], true);
        generateTest([10,20], [19,null], true);
        generateTest([null,30], [10,20], true);
        generateTest([19,null], [10,20], true);
    });

    describe('do overlap (one range included in other range)', function() {
        generateTest([10,40], [20,30], true);
        generateTest([20,30], [10,40], true);

        generateTest([10,40], [null,null], true);
        generateTest([null,null], [10,40], true);
    });

    describe('do overlap (both ranges equal)', function() {
        generateTest([10,20], [10,20], true);

        generateTest([null,20], [null,20], true);
        generateTest([10,null], [10,null], true);
        generateTest([null,null], [null,null], true);
    });
});

使用karma&jasmine&PhantomJS运行时的结果：

PhantomJS 1.9.8（Linux）：执行20次成功（0.003秒/0.004秒）

我认为最简单的方法是比较EndDate1是否在StartDate2之前，EndDate2是否在StartDate 1之前。

当然，如果您正在考虑StartDate总是在EndDate之前的时间间隔。

为了涵盖PHP/LaravelCarbon包中的所有重叠情况，您可以在Charles的答案中展开逻辑，如下所示。

if ( ($startTime1->between($startTime2, $endTime2, true) || $endTime1->between($startTime2, $endTime2, true)) || (($startTime1 <= $endTime2) && ($endTime2 <= $endTime1)) ){
//Complete Overlap, Partial Left Overlap, Partial Right Overlap. 
}

这将检查StartTime1是否在（StartTime2-EndTime2）范围之间，或者EndTime1是否位于（StartTime2-EndTime2的范围之间。

其余部分完全重叠，如其他答案所述。

这里有一个可以在本地使用的通用方法。

    // Takes a list and returns all records that have overlapping time ranges.
    public static IEnumerable<T> GetOverlappedTimes<T>(IEnumerable<T> list, Func<T, bool> filter, Func<T,DateTime> start, Func<T, DateTime> end)
    {
        // Selects all records that match filter() on left side and returns all records on right side that overlap.
        var overlap = from t1 in list
                      where filter(t1)
                      from t2 in list
                      where !object.Equals(t1, t2) // Don't match the same record on right side.
                      let in1 = start(t1)
                      let out1 = end(t1)
                      let in2 = start(t2)
                      let out2 = end(t2)
                      where in1 <= out2 && out1 >= in2
                      let totover = GetMins(in1, out1, in2, out2)
                      select t2;

        return overlap;
    }

    public static void TestOverlap()
    {
        var tl1 = new TempTimeEntry() { ID = 1, Name = "Bill", In = "1/1/08 1:00pm".ToDate(), Out = "1/1/08 4:00pm".ToDate() };
        var tl2 = new TempTimeEntry() { ID = 2, Name = "John", In = "1/1/08 5:00pm".ToDate(), Out = "1/1/08 6:00pm".ToDate() };
        var tl3 = new TempTimeEntry() { ID = 3, Name = "Lisa", In = "1/1/08 7:00pm".ToDate(), Out = "1/1/08 9:00pm".ToDate() };
        var tl4 = new TempTimeEntry() { ID = 4, Name = "Joe", In = "1/1/08 3:00pm".ToDate(), Out = "1/1/08 8:00pm".ToDate() };
        var tl5 = new TempTimeEntry() { ID = 1, Name = "Bill", In = "1/1/08 8:01pm".ToDate(), Out = "1/1/08 8:00pm".ToDate() };
        var list = new List<TempTimeEntry>() { tl1, tl2, tl3, tl4, tl5 };
        var overlap = GetOverlappedTimes(list, (TempTimeEntry t1)=>t1.ID==1, (TempTimeEntry tIn) => tIn.In, (TempTimeEntry tOut) => tOut.Out);

        Console.WriteLine("\nRecords overlap:");
        foreach (var tl in overlap)
            Console.WriteLine("Name:{0} T1In:{1} T1Out:{2}", tl.Name, tl.In, tl.Out);
        Console.WriteLine("Done");

        /*  Output:
            Records overlap:
            Name:Joe T1In:1/1/2008 3:00:00 PM T1Out:1/1/2008 8:00:00 PM
            Name:Lisa T1In:1/1/2008 7:00:00 PM T1Out:1/1/2008 9:00:00 PM
            Done
         */
    }

使用Java util.Date，这里是我所做的。

    public static boolean checkTimeOverlaps(Date startDate1, Date endDate1, Date startDate2, Date endDate2)
    {
        if (startDate1 == null || endDate1 == null || startDate2 == null || endDate2 == null)
           return false;

        if ((startDate1.getTime() <= endDate2.getTime()) && (startDate2.getTime() <= endDate1.getTime()))
           return true;

        return false;
    }

这是我使用moment.js的javascript解决方案：

// Current row dates
var dateStart = moment("2014-08-01", "YYYY-MM-DD");
var dateEnd = moment("2014-08-30", "YYYY-MM-DD");

// Check with dates above
var rangeUsedStart = moment("2014-08-02", "YYYY-MM-DD");
var rangeUsedEnd = moment("2014-08-015", "YYYY-MM-DD");

// Range covers other ?
if((dateStart <= rangeUsedStart) && (rangeUsedEnd <= dateEnd)) {
    return false;
}
// Range intersects with other start ?
if((dateStart <= rangeUsedStart) && (rangeUsedStart <= dateEnd)) {
    return false;
}
// Range intersects with other end ?
if((dateStart <= rangeUsedEnd) && (rangeUsedEnd <= dateEnd)) {
    return false;
}

// All good
return true;
