Is there an easy way to do something like getting the 2nd Thursday of
a given month? As an example, here is code I wrote that gets the next
Thanksgiving. I think it works correctly, but is there an easier way
to do this?
private static LocalDate getThanksgiving(int year) {
LocalDate ld = new LocalDate(year, 11, 1);
if (ld.getDayOfWeek() != DateTimeConstants.THURSDAY) {
// Move back to the previous Thursday.
ld = ld.withDayOfWeek(DateTimeConstants.THURSDAY);
if (ld.monthOfYear().get() != DateTimeConstants.NOVEMBER) {
ld = ld.plusWeeks(1); // move forward into November
}
}
return ld.plusWeeks(3); // to get to 4th Thursday
}
}
// Now call that method like this.
LocalDate thanksgiving = getThanksgiving(year);
if (thanksgiving.isBefore(today)) {
thanksgiving = getThanksgiving(year + 1);
}
