Hi all,
I came across very strange problem when roll method in GregorianCalendar.
When rolling down from given date - calendar skips 04/04/2004 and rolls to the
04/03/2004
When I roll up - dates are correct.
Here is the code that I use, please test...
try {
SimpleDateFormat mmddyyyy = new SimpleDateFormat("MM/dd/yyyy");
SimpleDateFormat wd = new SimpleDateFormat("E");
String[] weekdates = new String[7];
String[] weekdays = new String[7];
GregorianCalendar cal = new GregorianCalendar();
java.util.Date date = mmddyyyy.parse("04/09/2004");
cal.setTime(date);
for (int i=0; i<weekdates.length; i++) {
cal.roll(Calendar.DAY_OF_YEAR, false);
date = cal.getTime();
weekdays[i] = wd.format(date);
weekdates[i] = mmddyyyy.format(date);
}
// print result
System.out.println("Result of rolling down");
for (int i=0; i<weekdates.length; i++) {
System.out.println(weekdays[i]+"; "+weekdates[i]);
}
// start rollup
date = mmddyyyy.parse("04/02/2004");
cal.setTime(date);
for (int i=0; i<weekdates.length; i++) {
cal.roll(Calendar.DAY_OF_YEAR, true);
date = cal.getTime();
weekdays[i] = wd.format(date);
weekdates[i] = mmddyyyy.format(date);
}
// print result
System.out.println("Result of rolling up");
for (int i=0; i<weekdates.length; i++) {
System.out.println(weekdays[i]+"; "+weekdates[i]);
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
// my print output: please not that there is no Sunday when roll down used!!!!
