How to Disable future dates in Android date picker

Java Code :

mExpireDate.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {              @Override             public void onClick(View v) {                  // To show current date in the datepicker                 final Calendar mcurrentDate = Calendar.getInstance();                 int mYear = mcurrentDate.get(Calendar.YEAR);                 int mMonth = mcurrentDate.get(Calendar.MONTH);                 int mDay = mcurrentDate.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);                   DatePickerDialog mDatePicker = new DatePickerDialog(                         EventRegisterActivity.this, new OnDateSetListener() {                             public void onDateSet(DatePicker datepicker,                                     int selectedyear, int selectedmonth,                                     int selectedday) {                                  mcurrentDate.set(Calendar.YEAR, selectedyear);                                 mcurrentDate.set(Calendar.MONTH, selectedmonth);                                 mcurrentDate.set(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH,                                         selectedday);                                 SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat(                                         getResources().getString(                                                 R.string.date_card_formate),                                         Locale.US);                                  mExpireDate.setText(sdf.format(mcurrentDate                                         .getTime()));                             }                         }, mYear, mMonth, mDay);                  mDatePicker.setTitle(getResources().getString(                         R.string.alert_date_select));                 mDatePicker.show();             }         }); 

How to do it?

Answer 1

Get the DatePicker from DatePickerDialog with getDatePicker(). Set the max date to current date with setMaxDate():

mDatePicker.getDatePicker().setMaxDate(System.currentTimeMillis()); 

Requires API level 11.

Answer 2

You can call getDatePicker().setMaxDate(long) on your DatePickerDialog to set today as your maximum date. You can update the function with the same name from the snippet you posted.

Note:: DatePickerDialog is the object that I referenced in the Android Docs from the link I posted.

@Override protected Dialog onCreateDialog(int id) {     Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance();     int cyear = c.get(Calendar.YEAR);     int cmonth = c.get(Calendar.MONTH);     int cday = c.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);     switch (id) {         case DATE_DIALOG_ID:         //start changes...         DatePickerDialog dialog = new DatePickerDialog(this, mDateSetListener, cyear, cmonth, cday);         dialog.getDatePicker().setMaxDate(System.currentTimeMillis());         return dialog;         //end changes...     }     return null; }
