Question

This is the code that is written to evaluate the desired result:

   Calendar c7DaysAgo = Calendar.getInstance(); // 7 days ago
    c7DaysAgo.add(Calendar.DATE, -7);

    Calendar today = Calendar.getInstance(); // today
    today.add(Calendar.DATE, 0);

    Criteria criteria = session.createCriteria(Checkin.class)
            .add(Restrictions.like("fbuid", id))
            .add(Restrictions.between("date", today.getTime(), c7DaysAgo.getTime()));
    List<Checkin> checkinList = criteria.list();
    return checkinList.size();

The table values that is being hit to retrieve the values is:

| id | date |fbuid | number |

| 1 |2012-12-04 18:41:34 | 1111 | 16 |

| 2 |2012-12-04 18:41:34 | 1111 | 2 |

I need the count of rows that fall between today and 7 days before.
But I am getting a value 0 instead of 2.

please help me as i cannot figure out what is going wrong!

Answer 1

I realized my mistake….the parameters for between were in the wrong order…it should be

Criteria criteria = session.createCriteria(Checkin.class)
            .add(Restrictions.like("fbuid", id))
            .add(Restrictions.between("date", c7DaysAgo.getTime(),today.getTime()));
