Best way to check whether two dates are the same calendar day in Groovy?
Question
Obviously I could create a Calendar
object with the date and use get(DAY)
on it, but knowing Groovy, I would guess there is an easier, quicker way I just don't know about?
Answer
(date1..date2).size() == 1 // true if two dates are on same calendar day
Solution
Quickly opened the Groovy In Action book and found the following sample that should help:
def today = new Date()
def yesterday = today-1
assert (yesterday..today).size() == 2
OTHER TIPS
A bit shorter and more readable then the current top answer:
date1 - date2 == 0 //true if two dates are on same calendar day
