how to get a list of dates between two dates in java

Question

I want a list of dates between start date and end date.

The result should be a list of all dates including the start and end date.

Answer 1

Something like this should definitely work:

private List getListOfDaysBetweenTwoDates(Date startDate, Date endDate) {
    List result = new ArrayList();
    Calendar start = Calendar.getInstance();
    start.setTime(startDate);
    Calendar end = Calendar.getInstance();
    end.setTime(endDate);
    end.add(Calendar.DAY_OF_YEAR, 1); //Add 1 day to endDate to make sure endDate is included into the final list
    while (start.before(end)) {
        result.add(start.getTime());
        start.add(Calendar.DAY_OF_YEAR, 1);
    }
    return result;
}
