Question

Hi I want to iterate through a date range without using any libraries. I want to start on 18/01/2005(want to format it to yyyy/M/d) and iterate in day intervals until the current date. I have formatted the start date, but I dont know how I can add it to a calendar object and iterate. I was wondering if anyone can help. Thanks

String newstr = "2005/01/18";
SimpleDateFormat format1 = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy/M/d");

Answer 1

Date date = format1.parse(newstr);
Calendar calendar = new GregorianCalendar();
calendar.setTime(date);
while (someCondition(calendar)) {
    doSomethingWithTheCalendar(calendar);
    calendar.add(Calendar.DATE, 1);
}
