Checking for Date Time

[Kalyan Anand]

I am writing a batch program. The batch program has a check as below how do I write it, any suggestions ?

Check the current system time falls between Saturday 1.00 AM and Sunday 1.00 PM.

Create a Calendar() object. Then use it's get() method to see if (DAY_OF_WEEK is Saturday and HOUR_OF_DAY >= 1) or (DAY_OF_WEEK is SUNDAY and HOUR_OF_DAY < 13).

Calendar is a class that isn't constructed with new. You have to call it's getInstance() method.

Calendar now = Calendar.getInstance();

To get values you have to use Calendar defined constants

int theHourOfDay = now.get(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY)
if ( now.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK) == Calendar.SUNDAY )
{

}
