Cannot deduct a day from current date in Java using jodatime [closed]

Question

I use JodaTime to deduct a day from current date . But it dosen't work for me, which means, my Date remains same, nothing is deducted! .

Here is the code ,

public class Note {
    private java.sql.Date date;

    public java.sql.Date getDate() {
        return date;
    }

    public void setDate(java.sql.Date date) {
        this.date = date;
    }
}


Note notez=new Note();

notez.setDate(new java.sql.Date(new DateTime(new  Date()).minus(1).toDate().getTime()));

Have any ideas about this .

Thank you.

Answer 1

DateTime.minus(long) will deduct the amount of milliseconds passed to the method.

What you're looking for is DateTime.minusDays(int)

Check the Javadoc

Answer 2

Try this:

notez.setDate(new java.sql.Date(new DateTime(new  Date()).minusDays(1).toDate().getTime()));
