I have a java programe which I can set a date in yyyy-MM-dd and I can get next and previous dates from it. following methods do the work,,
public void setDate(String date) {
StringTokenizer st = new StringTokenizer(date, "-");
year = Integer.parseInt(st.nextToken());
monthNo = Integer.parseInt(st.nextToken()) - 1;
day = Integer.parseInt(st.nextToken());
date = year + "-" + monthNo + "-" + day;
}
public String getPreviousMonth(boolean maxDate) {
Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
if (maxDate) {
calendar.set(year, monthNo, 1);
int maxD = calendar.getActualMaximum(calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);
calendar.set(year, monthNo, maxD);
} else {
calendar.set(year, monthNo, day);
}
if (monthNo == 0) {
calendar.add(calendar.MONTH, -1);
} else {
calendar.add(calendar.MONTH, -1);
}
String date = (calendar.get(calendar.YEAR)) + "-" + (calendar.get(calendar.MONTH) + 1) + "-" + calendar.get(calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);
calendar.clear();
return date;
}
public String getNextMonth(boolean maxDate) {
Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
if (maxDate) {
calendar.set(year, monthNo, 1);
int maxD = calendar.getActualMaximum(calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);
calendar.set(year, monthNo, maxD);
} else {
calendar.set(year, monthNo, day);
}
if (monthNo == 11) {
calendar.add(calendar.MONTH, 1);
} else {
calendar.add(calendar.MONTH, 1);
}
public String getCurrentMonth(boolean maxDate){
Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
if (maxDate) {
calendar.set(year, monthNo, 1);
int maxD = calendar.getActualMaximum(calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);
calendar.set(year, monthNo, maxD);
} else {
calendar.set(year, monthNo, day);
}
String date = (calendar.get(calendar.YEAR)) + "-" + (calendar.get(calendar.MONTH) + 1) + "-" + calendar.get(calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);
calendar.clear();
return date;
}
When I set the date to January and February, it gives me the correct output but if I select another month other than January and February I can't get the correct day, followings are some results,
this is OK
2012-1-31 - current month
2011-12-31 - previous month
2012-2-29 - next month
2012-2-29 current month
2012-1-29 previous month ***day should be 31
2012-3-29 next month ***day should be 31
this is OK
2011-12-31 current month
2011-11-30 previous month
2012-1-31 next month
2011-11-30 current month
2011-10-30 previous month *** this should be 31
2011-12-30 next month *** this should be 31
this is OK
2011-12-31 current month
2011-11-30 previous month
2012-1-31 next month
Please tell me where am I wrong...
The problem was that you retrieved maximum amount of days in current month BEFORE actually changing the month.
Here how should it look.
public String getNextMonth(boolean maxDate) {
Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
calendar.set(year, monthNo, 1);
calendar.add(Calendar.MONTH, 1);
if (maxDate) {
int maxD = calendar.getActualMaximum(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);
calendar.set(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH, maxD);
} else {
calendar.set(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH, day);
}
String date = (calendar.get(Calendar.YEAR)) + "-" + (calendar.get(Calendar.MONTH) + 1) + "-" + calendar.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);
calendar.clear();
return date;
}
