I've got two LocalDates:
LocalDate date1;
LocalDate date2;
//...
How to find the number of days between those dates?
520
The Period class has a between() method - just as the previously discussed ChronoUnit . This method takes in two LocalDate objects, one representing the starting date, and the second being the end date. It returns a Period consisting of the number of years, months, and days between two dates.
LocalDate compareTo() Method The method compareTo() compares two instances for the date-based values (day, month, year) and returns an integer value based on the comparison. 0 (Zero) if both the dates represent the same date in calendar. Positive integer if given date is latter than the otherDate.
Here's a way to calculate the difference although not necessarily the fastest: LocalDateTime fromDateTime = LocalDateTime. of(1984, 12, 16, 7, 45, 55); LocalDateTime toDateTime = LocalDateTime. of(2014, 9, 10, 6, 40, 45); LocalDateTime tempDateTime = LocalDateTime.
We can use the simple isBefore , isAfter and isEqual to check if a date is within a certain date range; for example, the below program check if a LocalDate is within the January of 2020. startDate : 2020-01-01 endDate : 2020-01-31 testDate : 2020-01-01 testDate is within the date range.
I would do something like
long daysBetween = DAYS.between(date1, date2);
