date which is after n number of days from a specified date

[Former Member]

hello,

In Java, how do I get the date which is after n number of days from a specified date ?

Hi,

	java.util.Date date = new java.util.Date();
	
	Calendar calD = Calendar.getInstance();	
	
	calD.setTime(date);
	
	calD.add(Calendar.DATE,10);
	
	date.setTime(calD.getTimeInMillis());

now this "date" holds the date which is after 10 daysfrom the current date.

pass your " n" in place of the 10 to get the desired date.

and set your desired date to calD.setTime();

Hope it helps you.

Hi,

Use

Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();

cal.add(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH, 5);
