查看示例http://www.roseindia.net/java/beginners/DateDifferent.shtml 这个例子给出了天、小时、分钟、秒和毫秒的差异:)。

import java.util.Calendar;
import java.util.Date;

public class DateDifferent {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Date date1 = new Date(2009, 01, 10);
        Date date2 = new Date(2009, 07, 01);
        Calendar calendar1 = Calendar.getInstance();
        Calendar calendar2 = Calendar.getInstance();
        calendar1.setTime(date1);
        calendar2.setTime(date2);
        long milliseconds1 = calendar1.getTimeInMillis();
        long milliseconds2 = calendar2.getTimeInMillis();
        long diff = milliseconds2 - milliseconds1;
        long diffSeconds = diff / 1000;
        long diffMinutes = diff / (60 * 1000);
        long diffHours = diff / (60 * 60 * 1000);
        long diffDays = diff / (24 * 60 * 60 * 1000);
        System.out.println("\nThe Date Different Example");
        System.out.println("Time in milliseconds: " + diff + " milliseconds.");
        System.out.println("Time in seconds: " + diffSeconds + " seconds.");
        System.out.println("Time in minutes: " + diffMinutes + " minutes.");
        System.out.println("Time in hours: " + diffHours + " hours.");
        System.out.println("Time in days: " + diffDays + " days.");
    }
}

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

使用java。Java 8+内置的时间框架:

ZonedDateTime now = ZonedDateTime.now();
ZonedDateTime oldDate = now.minusDays(1).minusMinutes(10);
Duration duration = Duration.between(oldDate, now);
System.out.println("ISO-8601: " + duration);
System.out.println("Minutes: " + duration.toMinutes());

输出:

ISO-8601: PT24H10M 分钟:罢工,

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

int daysDiff = (date1.getTime() - date2.getTime()) / MILLIS_PER_DAY;

您可以尝试较早版本的Java。

 public static String daysBetween(Date createdDate, Date expiryDate) {

        Calendar createdDateCal = Calendar.getInstance();
        createdDateCal.clear();
        createdDateCal.setTime(createdDate);

        Calendar expiryDateCal = Calendar.getInstance();
        expiryDateCal.clear();
        expiryDateCal.setTime(expiryDate);


        long daysBetween = 0;
        while (createdDateCal.before(expiryDateCal)) {
            createdDateCal.add(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH, 1);
            daysBetween++;
        }
        return daysBetween+"";
    }
