只需在两个Date对象上使用下面的方法。如果你想传递当前日期，只需传递new date()作为第二个参数，因为它是用当前时间初始化的。

public String getDateDiffString(Date dateOne, Date dateTwo)
{
    long timeOne = dateOne.getTime();
    long timeTwo = dateTwo.getTime();
    long oneDay = 1000 * 60 * 60 * 24;
    long delta = (timeTwo - timeOne) / oneDay;

    if (delta > 0) {
        return "dateTwo is " + delta + " days after dateOne";
    }
    else {
        delta *= -1;
        return "dateTwo is " + delta + " days before dateOne";
     }
}

此外，除了从天数，如果，你也想要其他参数的差异，使用下面的片段，

int year = delta / 365;
int rest = delta % 365;
int month = rest / 30;
rest = rest % 30;
int weeks = rest / 7;
int days = rest % 7;

p.s. Code完全取自SO答案。

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?

因为您正在使用Scala，所以有一个非常好的Scala库Lamma。在南丫岛，你可以直接用-运算符减去日期

scala> Date(2015, 5, 5) - 2     // minus days by int
res1: io.lamma.Date = Date(2015,5,3)

scala> Date(2015, 5, 15) - Date(2015, 5, 8)   // minus two days => difference between two days
res2: Int = 7

Since dates can contain hours and minutes, final result will be rounded down, which will result in incorrect value. For example, you calculate difference between today at 22:00 p.m and day after tomorrow 00:00 a.m, so the final result will be 1, because in reality it was 1.08 or smth difference, then it gets rounded down when calling TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.toDays(..). That's why you need to take that in account, so in my solution I subtract the remainder of milliseconds from milliseconds in a day. Additionally, if you want to count the end date, you need to +1 it.

import java.util.Date;
import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;

public static long getDaysBetween(Date date1, Date date2, boolean includeEndDate) {
        long millisInDay = 60 * 60 * 24 * 1000;
        long difference = Math.abs(date1.getTime() - date2.getTime());
        long add = millisInDay - (difference % millisInDay);//is used to calculate true number of days, because by default hours, minutes are also counted

        return TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.toDays(difference + add) + (includeEndDate ? 1 : 0);
    }

测试:

Date date1 = new Date(121, Calendar.NOVEMBER, 27); //2021 Nov 27
Date date2 = new Date(121, Calendar.DECEMBER, 29); //2021 Dec 29
System.out.println( getDaysBetween(date1, date2, false) ); //32 days difference
System.out.println( getDaysBetween(date1, date2, true) ); //33 days difference

如果你需要一个格式化的返回字符串 “2天03h 42m 07s”，试试这个:

public String fill2(int value)
{
    String ret = String.valueOf(value);

    if (ret.length() < 2)
        ret = "0" + ret;            
    return ret;
}

public String get_duration(Date date1, Date date2)
{                   
    TimeUnit timeUnit = TimeUnit.SECONDS;

    long diffInMilli = date2.getTime() - date1.getTime();
    long s = timeUnit.convert(diffInMilli, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS);

    long days = s / (24 * 60 * 60);
    long rest = s - (days * 24 * 60 * 60);
    long hrs = rest / (60 * 60);
    long rest1 = rest - (hrs * 60 * 60);
    long min = rest1 / 60;      
    long sec = s % 60;

    String dates = "";
    if (days > 0) dates = days + " Days ";

    dates += fill2((int) hrs) + "h ";
    dates += fill2((int) min) + "m ";
    dates += fill2((int) sec) + "s ";

    return dates;
}

让我来看看Joda Interval和Days之间的差异:

DateTime start = new DateTime(2012, 2, 6, 10, 44, 51, 0);
DateTime end = new DateTime(2012, 2, 6, 11, 39, 47, 1);
Interval interval = new Interval(start, end);
Period period = interval.toPeriod();
System.out.println(period.getYears() + " years, " + period.getMonths() + " months, " + period.getWeeks() + " weeks, " + period.getDays() + " days");
System.out.println(period.getHours() + " hours, " + period.getMinutes() + " minutes, " + period.getSeconds() + " seconds ");
//Result is:
//0 years, 0 months, *1 weeks, 1 days*
//0 hours, 54 minutes, 56 seconds 

//Period can set PeriodType,such as PeriodType.yearMonthDay(),PeriodType.yearDayTime()...
Period p = new Period(start, end, PeriodType.yearMonthDayTime());
System.out.println(p.getYears() + " years, " + p.getMonths() + " months, " + p.getWeeks() + " weeks, " + p.getDays() + "days");
System.out.println(p.getHours() + " hours, " + p.getMinutes() + " minutes, " + p.getSeconds() + " seconds ");
//Result is:
//0 years, 0 months, *0 weeks, 8 days*
//0 hours, 54 minutes, 56 seconds
