Date

[new_2_java]

Hi all,

I want to create a function that adds certain amount of days for a given date.

e.g.

Say today's date is 21/9/2007. and I would like to add 95 days to this date. How do I accomplish that.

Any help will be real appreciate it.

Regards.

The folowing link of java util API can provide help.
http://72.5.124.55/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/util/GregorianCalendar.html#add(int,%20int )

There was another DateUtility which was posted earlier on this site. Please refer that too.

You will want to use Calendar (or perhaps specifically GregorianCalendar ) class for that. This site has a lot of info on using it: http://mindprod.com/jgloss/calendar.html
Adding time (days, weeks, months, whatever) is a simple matter of using the add() method or the roll() method depending on your needs.
Calendar now = Calendar.getInstance(); will give you a locale-specific instance of a Calendar set to the current date and time.
