如果你想修复跨越夏时制边界的日期范围的问题(例如，一个日期在夏季，另一个日期在冬季)，你可以使用这个来获得天数的差异:

public static long calculateDifferenceInDays(Date start, Date end, Locale locale) {
    Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance(locale);

    cal.setTime(start);
    cal.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, 0);
    cal.set(Calendar.MINUTE, 0);
    cal.set(Calendar.SECOND, 0);
    cal.set(Calendar.MILLISECOND, 0);
    long startTime = cal.getTimeInMillis();

    cal.setTime(end);
    cal.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, 0);
    cal.set(Calendar.MINUTE, 0);
    cal.set(Calendar.SECOND, 0);
    cal.set(Calendar.MILLISECOND, 0);
    long endTime = cal.getTimeInMillis();

    // calculate the offset if one of the dates is in summer time and the other one in winter time
    TimeZone timezone = cal.getTimeZone();
    int offsetStart = timezone.getOffset(startTime);
    int offsetEnd = timezone.getOffset(endTime);
    int offset = offsetEnd - offsetStart;

    return TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.toDays(endTime - startTime + offset);
}

你需要更清楚地定义你的问题。您可以只取两个Date对象之间的毫秒数，然后除以24小时内的毫秒数，例如……但是:

这将不考虑时区-日期总是UTC 这并没有考虑到日光节约时间(例如，有些日子可能只有23小时) 即使在UTC时间内，8月16日晚上11点到8月18日凌晨2点有多少天?只有27个小时，那意味着一天吗?还是应该是三天，因为它涵盖了三个日期?

    int offsetEnd = timezone.getOffset(endTime);
    int offset = offsetEnd - offsetStart;

    return TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.toDays(endTime - startTime + offset);
}

这是另一个样本。基本上适用于用户定义的模式。

   public static LinkedHashMap<String, Object> checkDateDiff(DateTimeFormatter dtfObj, String startDate, String endDate)
   {
          Map<String, Object> dateDiffMap = new HashMap<String, Object>();
          DateTime start = DateTime.parse(startDate,dtfObj);
          DateTime end = DateTime.parse(endDate,dtfObj);
          Interval interval = new Interval(start, end);
          Period period = interval.toPeriod();

          dateDiffMap.put("ISO-8601_PERIOD_FORMAT", period);
          dateDiffMap.put("YEAR", period.getYears());
          dateDiffMap.put("MONTH", period.getMonths());
          dateDiffMap.put("WEEK", period.getWeeks());
          dateDiffMap.put("DAY", period.getWeeks());             
          dateDiffMap.put("HOUR", period.getHours());
          dateDiffMap.put("MINUTE", period.getMinutes());
          dateDiffMap.put("SECOND", period.getSeconds());

          return dateDiffMap;        
   }

因为这个问题用Scala做了标记，

import scala.concurrent.duration._
val diff = (System.currentTimeMillis() - oldDate.getTime).milliseconds
val diffSeconds = diff.toSeconds
val diffMinutes = diff.toMinutes
val diffHours = diff.toHours
val diffDays = diff.toDays

只需要对每个函数调用getTime，取其差值，然后除以一天中的毫秒数。
