Sure, it all boils down to your business requirements. Based on your
original post, it really wasn't clear what constraints you were operating
within. All else being equal, I'd opt not to create Calendar objects, but
if you have to, you have to...

Hi Khris,
That's what I was doing before. The problem with this strategy is that
I also have to handle months in the calendar that are more or less than
30 days. Moreover, there is no simple way to set the time to 0 and do
Day operations only.

Or, create yourself a utility class:
public class TimeConstants {
public static final long SECOND_MS = 1000;
public static final long MINUTE_MS = 60 * SECOND_MS;
public static final long HOUR_MS = 60 * MINUTE_MS;
public static final long DAY_MS = 24 * HOUR_MS;
// add another here for two days if it's used often enough
}
Then:
return (timestamp.getTime() >= (System.currentTimeMillis() + (2 *
TimeConstants.DAY_MS)));

Hi all,
I am handling timestamps in one of my beans. Can someone advise me on
how to write the following script? I am curious about what libraries
you would be using... I am only using "java.util.Date" and it is not
very flexible.
Function to evaluate a date passed by the function process
----------------------------------------------------------
Boolean process(Date timestamp) {
If timestamp < (today+2days)
Return false;
Else
Return true;
}
----------------------------------------------------------
Thank you for your consideration.
