Hi All, I searched through the code base looking for a simple date comparison method to compare two dates excluding time. I was unable to find one. Is there one that I can use?
I want the ability to compare data A to B and determine if it is <, =, or >. I've writen one, compareDates(Date A, Date B) compares the day, month and year of two dates, returing 0, -1 or +1 indicating whether the first date is equal, before or after the second. If there isn't one, I propose adding my method to the framework\base\src\base\org\ofbiz\base\util\UtilDateTime.java class. There is a method in commons validation jar but this jar is not included in the distro. http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/validator/apidocs/org/apache/commons/validator/routines/DateValidator.html Should we include my method or the commons validator jar? Thanks, John
