这是一段神奇的代码：

 var isOverlapping =  ((A == null || D == null || A <= D) 
            && (C == null || B == null || C <= B)
            && (A == null || B == null || A <= B)
            && (C == null || D == null || C <= D));

哪里

A->1启动B->1结束C->2启动D->2结束

证据查看此测试控制台代码要点。

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
         */
    }

你可以试试这个：

//custom date for example
$d1 = new DateTime("2012-07-08");
$d2 = new DateTime("2012-07-11");
$d3 = new DateTime("2012-07-08");
$d4 = new DateTime("2012-07-15");

//create a date period object
$interval = new DateInterval('P1D');
$daterange = iterator_to_array(new DatePeriod($d1, $interval, $d2));
$daterange1 = iterator_to_array(new DatePeriod($d3, $interval, $d4));
array_map(function($v) use ($daterange1) { if(in_array($v, $daterange1)) print "Bingo!";}, $daterange);

对于ruby，我也发现了这一点：

class Interval < ActiveRecord::Base

  validates_presence_of :start_date, :end_date

  # Check if a given interval overlaps this interval    
  def overlaps?(other)
    (start_date - other.end_date) * (other.start_date - end_date) >= 0
  end

  # Return a scope for all interval overlapping the given interval, including the given interval itself
  named_scope :overlapping, lambda { |interval| {
    :conditions => ["id <> ? AND (DATEDIFF(start_date, ?) * DATEDIFF(?, end_date)) >= 0", interval.id, interval.end_date, interval.start_date]
  }}

end

在这里找到它，解释很好->http://makandracards.com/makandra/984-test-if-two-date-ranges-overlap-in-ruby-or-rails

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;
    }

这是我的解决方案，当值不重叠时返回真值：

X开始1Y端1

开始2B端2

TEST1: (X <= A || X >= B)
        &&
TEST2: (Y >= B || Y <= A) 
        && 
TEST3: (X >= B || Y <= A)


X-------------Y
    A-----B

TEST1:  TRUE
TEST2:  TRUE
TEST3:  FALSE
RESULT: FALSE

---------------------------------------

X---Y
      A---B

TEST1:  TRUE
TEST2:  TRUE
TEST3:  TRUE
RESULT: TRUE

---------------------------------------

      X---Y

TEST1:  TRUE
TEST2:  TRUE
TEST3:  TRUE

TEST1:  FALSE
TEST2:  FALSE
TEST3:  FALSE
