[Former Member]

Hi ,

Plz help me to solve this problem -

My requirement -

1. I have to find the difference between a past date say d1 and today's date say d2.

2. If the difference between theses two dates is more than or equalto 6 months , then perform some logic .

Date Last = user.lastModified();

Date Current = new Date(System.currentTimeMillis());

int diff= Current.compareTo(Last);

How to proceed after this step .

I have done to this extent .

Please help me to get it resolved soon

Thanks in advance !!.

Date Last = user.lastModified();
Date Current = new Date(System.currentTimeMillis());

long diff = current.getTime() - last.getTime();
long days = (diff / (1000 * 60 * 60 * 24));

if( days >= 180) 
  Your logic goes here

hi!

Date Last = user.lastModified();

Date Current = new Date(System.currentTimeMillis());

//convert the difference in number of days

long diffDays = (Last - Current ) / (24 * 60 * 60 * 1000);

if( diffDays >= 180)

{

//perform your logic

}

thanks

hi

u just type this code and see

Date startDate1 = new GregorianCalendar(1996, 02, 14, 14, 00).getTime();

Date endDate1 = new Date();;

long diff = endDate1.getTime() - startDate1.getTime();
