A suite of utilities surrounding the use of the Calendar and Date object.

DateUtils contains a lot of common methods considering manipulations of Dates or Calendars. Some methods require some extra explanation. The truncate, ceiling and round methods could be considered the Math.floor(), Math.ceil() or Math.round versions for dates This way date-fields will be ignored in bottom-up order. As a complement to these methods we've introduced some fragment-methods. With these methods the Date-fields will be ignored in top-down order. Since a date without a year is not a valid date, you have to decide in what kind of date-field you want your result, for instance milliseconds or days.

Several methods are provided for adding to Date objects, of the form addXXX(Date date, int amount). It is important to note these methods use a Calendar internally (with default timezone and locale) and may be affected by changes to daylight saving time (DST).

Rounds a date, leaving the field specified as the most significant field.

For example, if you had the date-time of 28 Mar 2002 13:45:01.231, if this was passed with HOUR, it would return 28 Mar 2002 14:00:00.000. If this was passed with MONTH, it would return 1 April 2002 0:00:00.000.

For a date in a timezone that handles the change to daylight saving time, rounding to Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY will behave as follows. Suppose daylight saving time begins at 02:00 on March 30. Rounding a date that crosses this time would produce the following values:

  • March 30, 2003 01:10 rounds to March 30, 2003 01:00
  • March 30, 2003 01:40 rounds to March 30, 2003 03:00
  • March 30, 2003 02:10 rounds to March 30, 2003 03:00
  • March 30, 2003 02:40 rounds to March 30, 2003 04:00

This method provides an iterator that returns Calendar objects. The days are progressed using Calendar.add(int, int).

For example, if you want to calculate the number of minutes past this month, your fragment is Calendar.MONTH. The result will be all minutes of the past day(s) and hour(s).

Valid fragments are: Calendar.YEAR, Calendar.MONTH, both Calendar.DAY_OF_YEAR and Calendar.DATE, Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, Calendar.MINUTE, Calendar.SECOND and Calendar.MILLISECOND A fragment less than or equal to a MINUTE field will return 0.
