输入一个年月，输出往前推5个月的年月，考虑跨年

public String GetPre_5_month_startdate(String tradeMonth){
        //        select to_char(add_months(to_date(i_trademonth, 'yyyyMM'), -5), 'yyyyMM') || '01'
       //        into v_pre_5_month_startdate from dual;

        final  int  renewalsdata = -5;
        String validatetime = tradeMonth;
        validatetime=validatetime+"01";
        SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyyMMdd");
        Date tradeTime = null;
        try {
            tradeTime = sdf.parse(validatetime);
        } catch (ParseException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
        calendar.setTime(tradeTime);
        System.out.println(sdf.format(calendar.getTime()));
        calendar.add(Calendar.MONTH, renewalsdata);
       return  sdf.format(calendar.getTime()).toString();
    }

另外，String没有append函数 。一个string要赋值给一个StringBuilder的话 可以如下：

    public void SaveVolumeToTemporaryTable(String tradeMonth) {
StringBuilder validatetime = new StringBuilder(tradeMonth);
