I have date array. For example 10 dates. I need calculate each date - it is this week or last week. How do make this?
private List<Receipt> getSectionPosition(List<Receipt> receiptList){
List<Receipt> list = new ArrayList<>();
Date now = new Date();
for (int i = 0; i<receiptList.size(); i++){
if (receiptList.get(i).getCreatedDate().compareTo(now)==0){
list.add(receiptList.get(i));
}
}
return list;
}
i pass List<Receipt>
and if receipt has date on this week i add it in new list. but it is not work.
Use something like this for comparing:
private List<Receipt> getSectionPosition(List<Receipt> receiptList){
List<Receipt> list = new ArrayList<>();
Date now = new Date();
Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance();
c.setTime(now);
int currentWeek = c.get(Calendar.WEEK_OF_YEAR);
for (int i = 0; i<receiptList.size(); i++){
c.setTime(receiptList.get(i).getCreatedDate());
int createdDateWeek = c.get(Calendar.WEEK_OF_YEAR);
if (currentWeek == createdDateWeek){
list.add(receiptList.get(i));
}
}
return list;
}
P.S. for more correct results, you could check the year, too (not just the week of the year), which you could do like this: int year = c.get(Calendar.YEAR);
http://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/Calendar.html#WEEK_OF_YEAR
Create a method compare dates
public boolean isTheSameWeek (Date date ){
Calendar c=Calendar.getInstance();
year1=c.get(c.YEAR);
week1=c.get(c.WEEK_OF_YEAR);
Calendar c1=Calendar.getInstance();
c.setTimeInMillis(date.getTime())
year2=c.get(c.YEAR);
week2=c.get(c.WEEK_OF_YEAR);
if(year1 == year2){
if(week1 == week2}{
return true;
}
}
return false
}}
In your method call this
if (isTheSameWeek(receiptList.get(i).getCreatedDate())){
