int diffInDays = (int)( (newerDate.getTime() - olderDate.getTime()) 
                 / (1000 * 60 * 60 * 24) )

请注意，这适用于UTC日期，因此如果查看本地日期，差异可能会减小一天。由于夏时制的原因，要让它在本地日期上正确工作，需要一种完全不同的方法。

这可能是最直接的方法了——也许是因为我已经用Java编写了一段时间了(它的日期和时间库确实很笨拙)，但对我来说，代码看起来“简单而漂亮”!

您是否对以毫秒为单位返回的结果感到满意，或者您的问题的一部分是希望以某种替代格式返回?

public static void main(String[] args) {

    String dateStart = "01/14/2012 09:29:58";
    String dateStop = "01/14/2012 10:31:48";

    SimpleDateFormat format = new SimpleDateFormat("MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm:ss");

    Date d1 = null;
    Date d2 = null;

    try {
        d1 = format.parse(dateStart);
        d2 = format.parse(dateStop);

        DateTime date11 = new DateTime(d1);
        DateTime date22 = new DateTime(d2);
        int days = Days.daysBetween(date11.withTimeAtStartOfDay(), date22.withTimeAtStartOfDay()).getDays();
        int hours = Hours.hoursBetween(date11, date22).getHours() % 24;
        int minutes = Minutes.minutesBetween(date11, date22).getMinutes() % 60;
        int seconds = Seconds.secondsBetween(date11, date22).getSeconds() % 60;
        if (hours > 0 || minutes > 0 || seconds > 0) {
            days = days + 1;
        }

        System.out.println(days);

    } catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

}

这将为同一天提供日期差异

Since dates can contain hours and minutes, final result will be rounded down, which will result in incorrect value. For example, you calculate difference between today at 22:00 p.m and day after tomorrow 00:00 a.m, so the final result will be 1, because in reality it was 1.08 or smth difference, then it gets rounded down when calling TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.toDays(..). That's why you need to take that in account, so in my solution I subtract the remainder of milliseconds from milliseconds in a day. Additionally, if you want to count the end date, you need to +1 it.

import java.util.Date;
import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;

public static long getDaysBetween(Date date1, Date date2, boolean includeEndDate) {
        long millisInDay = 60 * 60 * 24 * 1000;
        long difference = Math.abs(date1.getTime() - date2.getTime());
        long add = millisInDay - (difference % millisInDay);//is used to calculate true number of days, because by default hours, minutes are also counted

        return TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.toDays(difference + add) + (includeEndDate ? 1 : 0);
    }

测试:

Date date1 = new Date(121, Calendar.NOVEMBER, 27); //2021 Nov 27
Date date2 = new Date(121, Calendar.DECEMBER, 29); //2021 Dec 29
System.out.println( getDaysBetween(date1, date2, false) ); //32 days difference
System.out.println( getDaysBetween(date1, date2, true) ); //33 days difference

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

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);
}
