Hi Renz,
You can not get the difference between 2 date objects just by
subtracting one from another.
You can get difference in milliseconds using date.getTime() method.
For example,
Date dt1 ;
Date dt2;
//Initializing Dates
......................
.....................
long diff = dt1.getTime() - dt2.getTime();
If you want to maintain some time difference between 2 dates, you
can do that by coverting that time in to millisenconds.
For example if you want to maintain 2 hours of time difference,
long wanted = 2*60*60*1000;
if ( diff > wanted){
.............................................
.............................................
}
Is this helpful !?
Regards,
RaviShankar
