java 毫秒数比较_java-比较日期以毫秒为单位

假设我有两个日期字段receiveDate和currentDate.我想检查receiveDate是否在currentDate之前5天.我所做的是将日期转换为毫秒,然后与5进行比较.是否有更好的方法？如果是这样,我的方式和原因会更好吗？谢谢.

我写的方法-

private static final double DAY_IN_MILLISECONDS = 86400000;

// Param date is the receivedDate

private long getDaysOld(final Date date) {

Calendar suppliedDate = Calendar.getInstance();

suppliedDate.setTime(date);

Calendar today = Calendar.getInstance();

today.setTime(currentDate);

double ageInMillis = (today.getTimeInMillis() - suppliedDate.getTimeInMillis());

double tempDouble;

if(isEqual(ageInMillis, 0.00) || isGreaterThan(Math.abs(ageInMillis), DAY_IN_MILLISECONDS)) {

tempDouble = ageInMillis / DAY_IN_MILLISECONDS;

} else {

tempDouble = DAY_IN_MILLISECONDS / ageInMillis;

}

long ageInDays = Math.round(tempDouble);

return ageInDays;

}

然后我有类似的东西-

long daysOld = getDaysOld(receivedDate) ;

if(daysOld <= 5) {

.... some business code ....

}
