Question

I have a requirement that I need to compare two Dates. One Date will come from DB which is String in \"YYYY-DD-MM\" firm and I need to compare this String Date with current Date

Answer 1

You can use 2 ways:

1. DateFormat object. Use parse method.

2. Make your own parser of the Date. I mean, you convert the year, month and day in an integer each, and use Date constructor to get the Date.
