I've always hated date manipulation.
I have a list of objects all of which contain a
string in the following format:
yyyy/MM/dd HH:mm
e.g. 2007/10/03 10:12
I'm looping through the list (no problem there) and plan on comparing each date to todays date to determine the oldest item in the list.
My question is - How do I convert this string to a date and compare it to the current date?
Just to keep things interesting I am limited to using 1.4.2 of the
Java SDK.
I really should devote some time to learning all about date manipulation one day. In the meantime your help is much appreciated.
