Incrementing the date

[Jamie Cotton]

Hiya all I have

class Date

{
public static void main (String args [])
{
 
SimpleDateFormat DateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("EEEE  dd-MM-yyyy");
 
                Date date = new Date();

                Date date2 = ?????????????
 

                System.out.println(DateFormat.format(date));
}
}
  

But how do I get date2 to be date increment by 2 days. So if date is 07/04/2005 date 2 should be 09/04/2005

Use a Calendar and look at the roll() and add() methods.

[Mark Mescher]

Use GregorianCalendar. Never add millis directly to generate the new date because you will get problems with winter/summer times and so on.
