How can I increment a date by one day in Java?

Question

I\'m working with a date in this format: yyyy-mm-dd.

How can I increment this date by one day?

Answer 1

Apache Commons already has this DateUtils.addDays(Date date, int amount) http://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-lang/apidocs/org/apache/commons/lang3/time/DateUtils.html#addDays%28java.util.Date,%20int%29 which you use or you could go with the JodaTime to make it more cleaner.
