How to calculate number of days between two datepicker in android and display in the edit text

Closed 2 years ago.
I have been trying to find the difference between two dates from date picker. My app is getting crashed for null point object exception.
java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'long java.util.Date.getTime()' on a null object reference

By putting String in front of dateto, you've made it a declaration of a local variable rather than a reference to the instance variable (that you're trying to access later). So it will forever be null. Change:
String dateto = month + "/" + dayOfMonth + "/" + year;
to
dateto = new Date(month, dayOfMonth, year); // no "String"
However, the Date constructor is deprecated and using Date is strongly discouraged, so you should really use something like:
import java.time.LocalDate;
import java.time.Instant;
import java.time.ZoneOffset;
//...
Instant dateto;
//...
LocalDate localDate = LocalDate.of(month, dayOfMonth, year);
dateto = localDate.atStartOfDay(ZoneOffset.UTC).toInstant();

Never mind, I figured out the answer using joda library
I have made it with different UI, joda library dependancy is included in build.gradle. It worked perfect.

Android: DatePicker value saved in a variable doesn't go in onCreate

I have a rather simple issue but this is bugging me out!
I am trying to build an app in which I have 2 DatePickers, periodFrom and periodTo.
Basically what I'm trying to do is let the user pick dates on both cases and then calculate the difference between dates in days. I already know how to get the difference, how to get the date from the DatePicker. The problem is I don't know where I should get the value from the DatePicker, as my onCreate intializes the listener for the DatePickers but it doesn't store the set dates in the global variables, only the current date which it gets from Calendar.getInstance();
Here is my code for the MainActivity, maybe you can enlighten me on this issue I'm having. Thank you!
MainActivity.class
package com.endtech.utilitycalculator;

periodFrom = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.periodFrom);
periodTo = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.periodTo);

from = mCalendarFrom.getTimeInMillis(); //This is current time, not the set time
to = mCalendarTo.getTimeInMillis(); //This is current time, not the set time
}
private void initListeners() {
setDateFrom();
setDateTo();
}
private void setDateFrom() {
final DatePickerDialog.OnDateSetListener date = new DatePickerDialog.OnDateSetListener() {

}

public void onClick(View v) {
new DatePickerDialog(MainActivity.this, date2, mCalendarTo.get(Calendar.YEAR),
mCalendarTo.get(Calendar.MONTH), mCalendarTo.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH)).show();
}
});
}
private void updateLabelTo() {
String mFormat = "dd/MM/yyyy";
SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat(mFormat, Locale.GERMANY);
periodTo.setText(sdf.format(mCalendarTo.getTime()));
}
}

The problem is you are getting the dates before selecting them.
Simply Create a button (when you click on the button then the process of converting difference into days get done). then on button click get the values of dates and then convert it into days.
Let me know if you find some problem by commenting below.

When the app is running, I go to the settings and change the Timezone to such a value so that the current date will change. Now when we select any date in the dialog, it behaves abnormally and goes to other date. I have used setMinDate() and setMaxDate() methods. This happens only in Android OS 5.1.
Any idea or help? Thanks in advance.

Can someone help me how to use date picker code with fragments please
I am trying to get the user to select a date , work out the difference between the dates from the current date and the date they selected then divide the date difference with the number of pounds (weight) they want to loose so a message appears as in an empty string displaying the target. for example todays date is 14/12/2012 and the user selects 24/12/2012 the date difference is 10 days and they wish to loose 10pounds(weight) in 10 days
how can i programme for it to work out the difference / it by the goal and display a result showing the aim which will be 1pound per day
Any help will be great i am really lost thankss !

you have extend the class Fragment first.
then you override onCreateView() to inflate your contentview.
the you use onActivityCreated you bind your views.

How to set the date from DatePicker dialog for multiple calls

Good day, can't seem to find a solution for this. i have 2 buttons that when pressed, opens a datepickerdialog, but my problem now is , how can i set them to the appropriate button on OnDateSet method. I am using a DialogFragment for the date and then implementing the DateListener in my activity. I have tried using getTag() but no success in getting the tag. here is what i tried:
public void showfromDatePickerDialog(View v) {
DialogFragment dateFragment = new DateDialogFragment();
dateFragment.show(getSupportFragmentManager(), "fromdatePicker");
}
public void showtoDatePickerDialog(View v) {
DialogFragment dateFragment = new DateDialogFragment();
dateFragment.show(getSupportFragmentManager(), "todatePicker");
}
public void onDateSet(DatePicker view, int year, int month, int day) {
StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder();
builder.append(day).append("-")
.append(month).append("-")
.append(year);
String text= builder.toString();
if(view.getTag().toString().equals("fromdatePicker")) { // error here
Log.d(TAG, "got here" + text);
fromdate.setText(text);
}
if(view.getTag() == "todatePicker") {
todate.setText(text);
}
any ideas how to implement this? i keep seeing solutions about using 2 different DialogFragment class but am guessing there should be another way. or am i wrong? Thank you

ok, i have a work around for these. which can be helpful for anyone with this problem. if its slightly incorrect please let me know and i can change it. but this is what i did to solve this issue.
in on DateSet:
public void onDateSet(DatePicker view, int year, int month, int day) {
StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder();
builder.append(day).append("-")
.append(month).append("-")
.append(year);
String text= builder.toString();
FragmentManager fragmanager = getSupportFragmentManager();
if(fragmanager.findFragmentByTag("fromdatePicker") != null) {
Log.d(TAG, "got here" + text);
fromdate.setText(text);
}
// if(view.getTag() == "todatePicker") {
if(fragmanager.findFragmentByTag("todatePicker") != null) {
todate.setText(text);
}
that way you can use the same dateListener for multiple calls and set the date appropriately based on the tag that was passed when calling show on the dialog.

Use below code of DatePicker Dialog.
private int mYear;
private int mMonth;
private int mDay;
Calendar cal4DatePicker = Calendar.getInstance();
Button btnDOB=findviewbyId(R.id.btndob);
private DatePickerDialog.OnDateSetListener mDateSetListener = new DatePickerDialog.OnDateSetListener() {
public void onDateSet(DatePicker view, int year, int monthOfYear,
int dayOfMonth) {
mYear = year;
mMonth = monthOfYear;
mDay = dayOfMonth;
cal4DatePicker.set(Calendar.YEAR, mYear);
cal4DatePicker.set(Calendar.MONTH, mMonth);
cal4DatePicker.set(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH, mDay);
btnDOB.setText(new StringBuilder()
.append(mDay).append("-").append(mMonth).append("-").append(mYear).append(" "));
}
};
on btnDOB you need to set click listner to show this DatePicker Dialog.

I have try same thing with Time Picker only. You can try out and set same for date picker also.
