Is there any easy way or a function to get what will be the date two weeks in advance? For example what will be the date after two weeks from now. I have checked Date() function and it doesn't look to have this functionality. The only way I can think of now is to hard code it, but I was hoping someone knows a better approach.
I can't comment so I'll post this as an answer.
This question has already an answer here: How to add 7 days to current date while not going over available days of a month?
You need to use the Calendar class.
Check Joda Time Lib.
i found something may help you using this lib check this
Use this code :
Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
cal.add(Calendar.DATE, +14);
Log.d("Date two weeks in advance is ",""+cal.getTime());

I need a combined Gregorian and Hijri calendar, I found this Hijri calendar on github, and it helpful for me, but i couldn't show Gregorian type on it. my question is: should I modify on source code of it, or should I custom Android calendar view widget?
If should I custom on Android calendar view widget, how I can do that?
I solved my problem by learn a concept of calendar view, it is easy to learn from this topic read it carefully.
Once you learned how to build a custom calendar, then you should build your own one.
I would create in my application a weekly calendar, one week, like the school to understand. I would then add the events in the week. To do this I searched the old questions and libraries but could not find what I was looking for. Have you any idea how I can do this?
what I want to create should look like this
thank you
You can use this library for horizontal week view, and on click on each date you can show that days tasks.
I am building a simple app for my job. What I have so far is a layout that changes every day of the week and lets us know the remedial tasks we have to do for that day. I recently tried to incorporate a DatePicker in to this. Which works somewhat as I used the DatePicker tutorial and can pull the Day of Month, Month, and Year no problem. But what I really want is the DAY_OF_YEAR. I am having one hell of a time trying to figure this out as I cannot find anything on it.
The reason I need this is that when the user chooses a different day, I want the application to be able to show him the upcoming tasks for that day, as well as the day of the week.
If the math is more problematic than you want, then create a Calendar object and let Java do it for you. Call something like:
calendar.set(datePicker.getYear(), datePicker.getMonth(), datePicker.getDayOfMonth());
int day = calendar.get(DAY_OF_YEAR);
How about calculating the day of year then?
You have the year, that should tell you how many days the february has. ((YEAR%4==0)?29:28)
You have the month, so you know which months came before
You have the day of month.
I want to develop a student's timetable for an android application. For this I need to have a calendar to know the day and to check whether the day is a weekday(since saturday and sunday doesnt need a timetable).Can I get the calendar on the phone to do this or do I have to come up with one of my own?
Any help is much appreciated.Thanks.
You can use http://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/Calendar.html. http://developer.android.com/reference/android/text/format/DateUtils.html and http://developer.android.com/reference/android/util/TimeUtils.html are also worth looking into in general.
You can use http://docs.oracle.com/javase/1.5.0/docs/api/java/util/Calendar.html
The java Calender API provide everything that you describe above.
