How to validate a date greater than current date

[rahulJ james]

I wanted to validate a date which should not be more than the current date. Any idea as I dont get any clue on this.

I am using the format
DateFormat objDateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd");

You can use the Date.compareTo method. It takes an argument Date, and returns the value 0 if the argument Date is equal to this Date; a value less than 0 if this Date is before the Date argument; and a value greater than 0 if this Date is after the Date argument. It's in the Java docs also.

And if you want date comparison (as in: today, tomorrow etc) just do a search. The question on how to calculate the difference in days between to Date objects has been asked numerous times before.
