此处发布的解决方案不适用于所有重叠范围。。。

我的工作解决方案是：

AND (
  ('start_date' BETWEEN STARTDATE AND ENDDATE) -- caters for inner and end date outer
  OR
  ('end_date' BETWEEN STARTDATE AND ENDDATE) -- caters for inner and start date outer
  OR
  (STARTDATE BETWEEN 'start_date' AND 'end_date') -- only one needed for outer range where dates are inside.
) 

在Microsoft SQL SERVER中-SQL函数

CREATE FUNCTION IsOverlapDates 
(
    @startDate1 as datetime,
    @endDate1 as datetime,
    @startDate2 as datetime,
    @endDate2 as datetime
)
RETURNS int
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE @Overlap as int
SET @Overlap = (SELECT CASE WHEN  (
        (@startDate1 BETWEEN @startDate2 AND @endDate2) -- caters for inner and end date outer
        OR
        (@endDate1 BETWEEN @startDate2 AND @endDate2) -- caters for inner and start date outer
        OR
        (@startDate2 BETWEEN @startDate1 AND @endDate1) -- only one needed for outer range where dates are inside.
        ) THEN 1 ELSE 0 END
    )
    RETURN @Overlap

END
GO

--Execution of the above code
DECLARE @startDate1 as datetime
DECLARE @endDate1 as datetime
DECLARE @startDate2 as datetime
DECLARE @endDate2 as datetime
DECLARE @Overlap as int
SET @startDate1 = '2014-06-01 01:00:00' 
SET @endDate1 =   '2014-06-01 02:00:00'
SET @startDate2 = '2014-06-01 01:00:00' 
SET @endDate2 =   '2014-06-01 01:30:00'

SET @Overlap = [dbo].[IsOverlapDates]  (@startDate1, @endDate1, @startDate2, @endDate2)

SELECT Overlap = @Overlap

本文《.NET时间段库》通过枚举PeriodRelation描述了两个时间段之间的关系：

// ------------------------------------------------------------------------
public enum PeriodRelation
{
    After,
    StartTouching,
    StartInside,
    InsideStartTouching,
    EnclosingStartTouching,
    Enclosing,
    EnclosingEndTouching,
    ExactMatch,
    Inside,
    InsideEndTouching,
    EndInside,
    EndTouching,
    Before,
} // enum PeriodRelation

使用momentjs的简短回答：

function isOverlapping(startDate1, endDate1, startDate2, endDate2){ 
    return moment(startDate1).isSameOrBefore(endDate2) && 
    moment(startDate2).isSameOrBefore(endDate1);
}

答案基于上述答案，但缩短了。

如果您使用的日期范围尚未结束（仍在进行中），例如未设置endDate='0000-00-00'您不能使用BETWEEN，因为0000-00-00不是有效日期！

我使用了这个解决方案：

(Startdate BETWEEN '".$startdate2."' AND '".$enddate2."')  //overlap: starts between start2/end2
OR (Startdate < '".$startdate2."' 
  AND (enddate = '0000-00-00' OR enddate >= '".$startdate2."')
) //overlap: starts before start2 and enddate not set 0000-00-00 (still on going) or if enddate is set but higher then startdate2

如果startdate2高于enddate，则没有重叠！

答案对我来说太简单了，所以我创建了一个更通用的动态SQL语句，用于检查某人是否有重叠的日期。

SELECT DISTINCT T1.EmpID
FROM Table1 T1
INNER JOIN Table2 T2 ON T1.EmpID = T2.EmpID 
    AND T1.JobID <> T2.JobID
    AND (
        (T1.DateFrom >= T2.DateFrom AND T1.dateFrom <= T2.DateTo) 
        OR (T1.DateTo >= T2.DateFrom AND T1.DateTo <= T2.DateTo)
        OR (T1.DateFrom < T2.DateFrom AND T1.DateTo IS NULL)
    )
    AND NOT (T1.DateFrom = T2.DateFrom)
