针对Java 8及更高版本进行更新

isAfter () isBefore () isEqual () compareTo ()

这些方法存在于LocalDate、LocalTime和LocalDateTime类中。

这些类内置于Java 8及更高版本中。大部分的java。时间功能在ThreeTen-Backport中向后移植到Java 6和7，并在ThreeTenABP中进一步适应Android(参见如何使用…)

使用getTime()获取日期的数值，然后使用返回值进行比较。

以下是比较日期的最常用方法(我的首选方法1):

方法1:使用Date.before()， Date.after()和Date.equals()

if (date1.after(date2)) {
    System.out.println("Date1 is after Date2");
}

if (date1.before(date2)) {
    System.out.println("Date1 is before Date2");
}

if (date1.equals(date2)) {
    System.out.println("Date1 is equal Date2");
}

方法2:Date.compareTo()

if (date1.compareTo(date2) > 0) {
    System.out.println("Date1 is after Date2");
} else if (date1.compareTo(date2) < 0) {
    System.out.println("Date1 is before Date2");
} else {
    System.out.println("Date1 is equal to Date2");
}

方法3:calendar .before()， calendar .after()和calendar .equals()

Calendar cal1 = Calendar.getInstance();
Calendar cal2 = Calendar.getInstance();
cal1.setTime(date1);
cal2.setTime(date2);

if (cal1.after(cal2)) {
    System.out.println("Date1 is after Date2");
}

if (cal1.before(cal2)) {
    System.out.println("Date1 is before Date2");
}

if (cal1.equals(cal2)) {
    System.out.println("Date1 is equal Date2");
}

使用compareTo:

date1.compareTo (date2);

这段代码确定今天是在一段时间内。基于韩国地区

    Calendar cstart = Calendar.getInstance(Locale.KOREA);
    cstart.clear();
    cstart.set(startyear, startmonth, startday);


    Calendar cend = Calendar.getInstance(Locale.KOREA);
    cend.clear();
    cend.set(endyear, endmonth, endday);

    Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance(Locale.KOREA);

    if(c.after(cstart) && c.before(cend)) {
        // today is in startyear/startmonth/startday ~ endyear/endmonth/endday
    }

这个方法对我很管用:

 public static String daysBetween(String day1, String day2) {
    String daysBetween = "";
    SimpleDateFormat myFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss");

    try {
        Date date1 = myFormat.parse(day1);
        Date date2 = myFormat.parse(day2);
        long diff = date2.getTime() - date1.getTime();
        daysBetween = ""+(TimeUnit.DAYS.convert(diff, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS));
    } catch (ParseException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
    return daysBetween;
}
