Java Calendar equals() Method

The Java Calendar equals() method compares this Calendar to the specified Object.

Following is the declaration for java.util.Calendar.equals() method

public boolean equals(Object obj)

• obj − the object to compare with.

true if this object is equal to obj; false if there is any difference in those parameters between the two Calendars (millisecond offset from the Epoch).

NA

The following example shows the usage of Java Calendar equals() method. We're creating two GregorianCalendar instance of different dates. We're comparing them using equals() method and then printing the result.

package com.tutorialspoint;

import java.util.Calendar;
import java.util.GregorianCalendar;

public class CalendarDemo {
   public static void main(String[] args) {

      // create two calendar at the different dates
      Calendar cal1 = new GregorianCalendar(2015, 8, 15);
      Calendar cal2 = new GregorianCalendar(2008, 1, 02);

      // compare the two calendar objects for equality.
      System.out.println("The result is : " + cal1.equals(cal2));
   }
}

Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result −

The result is : false

The following example shows the usage of Java Calendar equals() method. We're creating two GregorianCalendar instance of same date. We're comparing them using equals() method and then printing the result.

package com.tutorialspoint;

import java.util.Calendar;
import java.util.GregorianCalendar;

public class CalendarDemo {
   public static void main(String[] args) {

      // create two calendar at the different dates
      Calendar cal1 = new GregorianCalendar(2015, 8, 15);
      Calendar cal2 = new GregorianCalendar(2015, 8, 15);

      // compare the two calendar objects for equality.
      System.out.println("The result is : " + cal1.equals(cal2));
   }
}

Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result −

The result is : true

The following example shows the usage of Java Calendar compareTo() method. We're creating two Calendar instance of current date and then we're comparing them using compareTo() method and then printing the result. As there is a very small difference of milliseconds, the result will come as false.

package com.tutorialspoint;

import java.util.Calendar;

public class CalendarDemo {
   public static void main(String[] args) {

      // create two calendar at the different dates
      Calendar cal1 = Calendar.getInstance();
      Calendar cal2 = Calendar.getInstance();
	  
      // compare the two calendar objects for equality.
      System.out.println("The result is : " + cal1.equals(cal2));
   }
}

Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result −

The result is : false
