Calculating a new date

Question

Hi All
I have set prioritys with hour values eg(LOW - 150hrs, HIGH - 12hrs). I need to be able to calculate a finnish date, using the current date (format: dd MMMM yyyy HH:mm), and the hours from the selected priority.

Answer 1

Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance(); // would get you the current date
int hour = cal.get(Calendar.HOUR); // would get you the hour
hour += XXX; //Add how much ever you want
cal.set(Calendar.HOUR,hour); // Now set it back to calendar
cal.getTime(); // This would give you the date object
Use SimpleDateFormat to change this date object in whatever format you want
Cheers
