Hi people,
I'm having a problem with the GC add function. Here's what I'm trying to do. I have a date such as 2001-01-01 when I run date.add(Calendar.DATE, 1), I get 2001-01-02...great, no problem.
However, when I run date.add(Calendar.DATE, -1), I get 2001-0-31...any ideas as to why or what I can do to fix this?
Thank you,
Shrubz
I'm not sure how you're implementing the add() function (i.e., I don't know what "date" refers to in your question). I wrote this little program and it worked:
import java.util.*;
public class Test {
public static void main (String args[]) {
GregorianCalendar testCal = new GregorianCalendar();
testCal.set(Calendar.MONTH,0);
testCal.set(Calendar.DATE,1);
Date testDate = testCal.getTime();
System.out.println(testDate);
testCal.add(Calendar.DATE,-1);
testDate = testCal.getTime();
System.out.println(testDate);
}
}
Here's the output:
Mon Jan 01 12:17:28 PST 2001
Sun Dec 31 12:17:28 PST 2000
