How to get date of last Friday from specified date? [duplicate]

Answer 1

Try this one:

/**
  * Return last day of week before specified date.
  * @param date - reference date.
  * @param day - DoW field from Calendar class.
  * @return
  */
public static Date getDateOnDay(Date date, int day) {
    Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
    cal.setTime(date);
    cal.add(Calendar.WEEK_OF_YEAR, -1);
    cal.set(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK, day);
    return cal.getTime();
}

Good luck.
