使用Java 8和Instant的另一个解决方案是使用truncatedTo方法

返回截断为指定单位的此即时的副本。

例子:

@Test
public void dateTruncate() throws InterruptedException {
    Instant now = Instant.now();
    Thread.sleep(1000*5);
    Instant later = Instant.now();
    assertThat(now, not(equalTo(later)));
    assertThat(now.truncatedTo(ChronoUnit.DAYS), equalTo(later.truncatedTo(ChronoUnit.DAYS)));
}

这对我来说很管用:

var Date1 = new Date(dateObject1.toDateString()); //this sets time to 00:00:00
var Date2 = new Date(dateObject2.toDateString()); 
//do a normal compare
if(Date1 > Date2){ //do something }

另一个简单的比较方法是基于这里的答案和我的导师的指导

public static int compare(Date d1, Date d2) {
    Calendar c1 = Calendar.getInstance();
    Calendar c2 = Calendar.getInstance();
    c1.setTime(d1);
    c1.set(Calendar.MILLISECOND, 0);
    c1.set(Calendar.SECOND, 0);
    c1.set(Calendar.MINUTE, 0);
    c1.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, 0);
    c2.setTime(d2);
    c2.set(Calendar.MILLISECOND, 0);
    c2.set(Calendar.SECOND, 0);
    c2.set(Calendar.MINUTE, 0);
    c2.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, 0);
    return c1.getTime().compareTo(c2.getTime());
  }

编辑: 根据@Jonathan Drapeau的说法，上面的代码在某些情况下会失败(我想看看这些情况)，他建议如下:

public static int compare2(Date d1, Date d2) {
    Calendar c1 = Calendar.getInstance();
    Calendar c2 = Calendar.getInstance();
    c1.clear();
    c2.clear();
    c1.set(Calendar.YEAR, d1.getYear());
    c1.set(Calendar.MONTH, d1.getMonth());
    c1.set(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH, d1.getDay());
    c2.set(Calendar.YEAR, d2.getYear());
    c2.set(Calendar.MONTH, d2.getMonth());
    c2.set(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH, d2.getDay());
    return c1.getTime().compareTo(c2.getTime());
}

请注意，Date类已弃用，因为它不适合国际化。取而代之的是Calendar类!

`

SimpleDateFormat sdf= new SimpleDateFormat("MM/dd/yyyy")

   Date date1=sdf.parse("03/25/2015");



  Date currentDate= sdf.parse(sdf.format(new Date()));

   return date1.compareTo(currentDate);

`

如果你使用的是Java 8，你应该使用Java .time。*类来比较日期-它优先于各种java.util。*类

如;https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/time/LocalDate.html

LocalDate date1 = LocalDate.of(2016, 2, 14);
LocalDate date2 = LocalDate.of(2015, 5, 23);
date1.isAfter(date2);

public static Date getZeroTimeDate(Date fecha) {
    Date res = fecha;
    Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();

    calendar.setTime( fecha );
    calendar.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, 0);
    calendar.set(Calendar.MINUTE, 0);
    calendar.set(Calendar.SECOND, 0);
    calendar.set(Calendar.MILLISECOND, 0);

    res = calendar.getTime();

    return res;
}

Date currentDate = getZeroTimeDate(new Date());// get current date   

这是解决这个问题最简单的方法。
