如果你用d1和d2作为日期，最好的解决方案可能是这样的:

int days1 = d1.getTime()/(60*60*24*1000);//find the number of days since the epoch.
int days2 = d2.getTime()/(60*60*24*1000);

然后说

days2-days1

或者其他

int daysDiff = (date1.getTime() - date2.getTime()) / MILLIS_PER_DAY;

在某些地区使用毫秒方法可能会导致问题。

举个例子，03/24/2007和03/25/2007之间的差应该是1天;

然而，如果使用毫秒路径，你将得到0天，如果你在英国运行这个!

/** Manual Method - YIELDS INCORRECT RESULTS - DO NOT USE**/  
/* This method is used to find the no of days between the given dates */  
public long calculateDays(Date dateEarly, Date dateLater) {  
   return (dateLater.getTime() - dateEarly.getTime()) / (24 * 60 * 60 * 1000);  
} 

更好的实现方法是使用java.util.Calendar

/** Using Calendar - THE CORRECT WAY**/  
public static long daysBetween(Calendar startDate, Calendar endDate) {  
  Calendar date = (Calendar) startDate.clone();  
  long daysBetween = 0;  
  while (date.before(endDate)) {  
    date.add(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH, 1);  
    daysBetween++;  
  }  
  return daysBetween;  
}  

以下是一种解决方案，因为我们有许多方法可以实现这一点:

  import java.util.*; 
   int syear = 2000;
   int eyear = 2000;
   int smonth = 2;//Feb
   int emonth = 3;//Mar
   int sday = 27;
   int eday = 1;
   Date startDate = new Date(syear-1900,smonth-1,sday);
   Date endDate = new Date(eyear-1900,emonth-1,eday);
   int difInDays = (int) ((endDate.getTime() - startDate.getTime())/(1000*60*60*24));

如果你想修复跨越夏时制边界的日期范围的问题(例如，一个日期在夏季，另一个日期在冬季)，你可以使用这个来获得天数的差异:

public static long calculateDifferenceInDays(Date start, Date end, Locale locale) {
    Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance(locale);

    cal.setTime(start);
    cal.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, 0);
    cal.set(Calendar.MINUTE, 0);
    cal.set(Calendar.SECOND, 0);
    cal.set(Calendar.MILLISECOND, 0);
    long startTime = cal.getTimeInMillis();

    cal.setTime(end);
    cal.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, 0);
    cal.set(Calendar.MINUTE, 0);
    cal.set(Calendar.SECOND, 0);
    cal.set(Calendar.MILLISECOND, 0);
    long endTime = cal.getTimeInMillis();

    // calculate the offset if one of the dates is in summer time and the other one in winter time
    TimeZone timezone = cal.getTimeZone();
    int offsetStart = timezone.getOffset(startTime);
    int offsetEnd = timezone.getOffset(endTime);
    int offset = offsetEnd - offsetStart;

    return TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.toDays(endTime - startTime + offset);
}

有很多方法可以找到日期和时间之间的区别。我所知道的最简单的方法之一是:

      Calendar calendar1 = Calendar.getInstance();
      Calendar calendar2 = Calendar.getInstance();
      calendar1.set(2012, 04, 02);
      calendar2.set(2012, 04, 04);
      long milsecs1= calendar1.getTimeInMillis();
      long milsecs2 = calendar2.getTimeInMillis();
      long diff = milsecs2 - milsecs1;
      long dsecs = diff / 1000;
      long dminutes = diff / (60 * 1000);
      long dhours = diff / (60 * 60 * 1000);
      long ddays = diff / (24 * 60 * 60 * 1000);

      System.out.println("Your Day Difference="+ddays);

打印语句只是一个示例—您可以按照自己喜欢的方式格式化它。
