Android Question DateUtils.PeriodBetweenInDays/ a day end after 0 o clock

[Alexander Stolte]

Hello,

my problem is this output of this code.

DateUtils.PeriodBetweenInDays(tformat,DateTime.Now).Days

For example i have this date

25.11.2017 14:00:00 and now is 26.11.2017 13:00:00 is the output = 0

What do I need to calculate around the time so that a new day begins after 0 o'clock?

Whatsapp for example it is 23:59 my message: "Today" now is it 00:00 and whatsapp say "yesterday" of my message.

What do you expect. From 14 to 13 o Clock on the next day. Te amount of days is 0 days, 23 hours.

This is my Problem with that:

I have 3 Dates, but because the function says 0 days and 23 hours it displays 2 Yesterdays. Is there a function that starts a new day from 0 o'clock or is based on the date?

I found a solution, but it was not easy to find:

diff = DateUtils.PeriodBetweenInDays(StripTime(tformat),StripTime(DateTime.Now)).Days

Sub StripTime(Ticks As Long) As Long
    Return DateUtils.SetDateAndTime(DateTime.GetYear(Ticks), DateTime.GetMonth(Ticks), DateTime.GetDayOfMonth(Ticks), 0, 0, 0)
End Sub

Seen someone else (here in the forums) use this trick to strip out the time portion :

Sub StripTime(Ticks as Long) As Long
    Return(DateTime.DateParse(DateTime.Date(Ticks)))
End Sub
