Question

Am using DateTime from Jodatime to know , the current date is greater or lesser than given date. given date is:

12/31/2011 12:00:00 AM

my code is:

   SimpleDateFormat form = new SimpleDateFormat("MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm:ss aa");

              java.util.Date date = null;

              Date date1 = form.parse(mydate);
              int year=date1.getHours();
              int month=date1.getMonth();


              day=date1.getDate();



              int minute=date1.getMinutes();
              int seco=date1.getSeconds();
              int hour=date1.getHours();

              DateTime myBirthDate = new DateTime(year,month, day, hour, minute,seco);
              DateTime now = new DateTime();

myBirthDate.isAfterNow();

its returning false

and when i pass date: 4/13/2011 12:00:00 AM

same false is returning

How to do it?

Thanks

This looks wrong:

int year=date1.getHours();

Also you can shorten your code like this:

DateTimeFormatter formatter = new DateTimeFormat.forPattern("MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm:ss aa");
DateTime myBirthDate = formatter.parseDateTime(mydate);
myBirthDate.isAfterNow();
