Como encontrar a duração da diferença entre duas datas em java?

Tenho dois objetos de DateTime , que precisam encontrar a duração de sua diferença ,

Tenho o seguinte código, mas não tenho certeza de como continuá-lo para obter os resultados esperados da seguinte forma:

Exemplo

      11/03/14 09:30:58
      11/03/14 09:33:43
      elapsed time is 02 minutes and 45 seconds
      -----------------------------------------------------
      11/03/14 09:30:58 
      11/03/15 09:30:58
      elapsed time is a day
      -----------------------------------------------------
      11/03/14 09:30:58 
      11/03/16 09:30:58
      elapsed time is two days
      -----------------------------------------------------
      11/03/14 09:30:58 
      11/03/16 09:35:58
      elapsed time is two days and 05 mintues

Código

    String dateStart = "11/03/14 09:29:58";
    String dateStop = "11/03/14 09:33:43";

    Custom date format
    SimpleDateFormat format = new SimpleDateFormat("yy/MM/dd HH:mm:ss");

    Date d1 = null;
    Date d2 = null;
    try {
        d1 = format.parse(dateStart);
        d2 = format.parse(dateStop);
    } catch (ParseException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

    // Get msec from each, and subtract.
    long diff = d2.getTime() - d1.getTime();
    long diffSeconds = diff / 1000 % 60;
    long diffMinutes = diff / (60 * 1000) % 60;
    long diffHours = diff / (60 * 60 * 1000);
    System.out.println("Time in seconds: " + diffSeconds + " seconds.");
    System.out.println("Time in minutes: " + diffMinutes + " minutes.");
    System.out.println("Time in hours: " + diffHours + " hours.");

tente o seguinte

{
        Date dt2 = new DateAndTime().getCurrentDateTime();

        long diff = dt2.getTime() - dt1.getTime();
        long diffSeconds = diff / 1000 % 60;
        long diffMinutes = diff / (60 * 1000) % 60;
        long diffHours = diff / (60 * 60 * 1000);
        int diffInDays = (int) ((dt2.getTime() - dt1.getTime()) / (1000 * 60 * 60 * 24));

        if (diffInDays > 1) {
            System.err.println("Difference in number of days (2) : " + diffInDays);
            return false;
        } else if (diffHours > 24) {

            System.err.println(">24");
            return false;
        } else if ((diffHours == 24) && (diffMinutes >= 1)) {
            System.err.println("minutes");
            return false;
        }
        return true;
}

A conversão de diferença de data poderia ser tratada de uma maneira melhor usando a classe integrada do Java, TimeUnit . Ele fornece métodos utilitários para fazer isso:

Date startDate = // Set start date
Date endDate   = // Set end date

long duration  = endDate.getTime() - startDate.getTime();

long diffInSeconds = TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.toSeconds(duration);
long diffInMinutes = TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.toMinutes(duration);
long diffInHours = TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.toHours(duration);
long diffInDays = TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.toDays(duration);

Use a biblioteca Joda-Time

DateTime startTime, endTime;
Period p = new Period(startTime, endTime);
long hours = p.getHours();
long minutes = p.getMinutes();

Joda Time tem um conceito de intervalo de tempo:

Interval interval = new Interval(oldTime, new Instant());

Mais um exemplo de diferença de data

Mais um link

ou com Java-8 (que integrou os conceitos Joda-Time)

Instant start, end;//
Duration dur = Duration.between(start, stop);
long hours = dur.toHours();
long minutes = dur.toMinutes();

Aqui está como o problema pode ser resolvido em Java 8, assim como a resposta de shamimz.

Fonte: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/datetime/iso/period.html

LocalDate today = LocalDate.now();
LocalDate birthday = LocalDate.of(1960, Month.JANUARY, 1);

Period p = Period.between(birthday, today);
long p2 = ChronoUnit.DAYS.between(birthday, today);

System.out.println("You are " + p.getYears() + " years, " + p.getMonths() + " months, and " + p.getDays() + " days old. (" + p2 + " days total)");

O código produz uma saída semelhante à seguinte:

You are 53 years, 4 months, and 29 days old. (19508 days total)

Temos que usar LocalDateTime http://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/time/LocalDateTime.html para obter diferenças de hora, minuto e segundo.

Date d2 = new Date();
Date d1 = new Date(1384831803875l);

long diff = d2.getTime() - d1.getTime();
long diffSeconds = diff / 1000 % 60;
long diffMinutes = diff / (60 * 1000) % 60;
long diffHours = diff / (60 * 60 * 1000);
int diffInDays = (int) diff / (1000 * 60 * 60 * 24);

System.out.println(diffInDays+"  days");
System.out.println(diffHours+"  Hour");
System.out.println(diffMinutes+"  min");
System.out.println(diffSeconds+"  sec");

Você pode criar um método como

public long getDaysBetweenDates(Date d1, Date d2){
return TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.toDays(d1.getTime() - d2.getTime());
}

Este método retornará o número de dias entre os 2 dias.

Como Michael Borgwardt escreve em sua resposta aqui :

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

Observe que isso funciona com datas UTC, portanto, a diferença pode ser um dia de folga se você olhar as datas locais. E fazer com que funcione corretamente com as datas locais requer uma abordagem completamente diferente devido ao horário de verão.

Em Java 8, você pode fazer de DateTimeFormatter, Duratione LocalDateTime. Aqui está um exemplo:

final String dateStart = "11/03/14 09:29:58";
final String dateStop = "11/03/14 09:33:43";

final DateTimeFormatter formatter = new DateTimeFormatterBuilder()
        .appendValue(ChronoField.MONTH_OF_YEAR, 2)
        .appendLiteral('/')
        .appendValue(ChronoField.DAY_OF_MONTH, 2)
        .appendLiteral('/')
        .appendValueReduced(ChronoField.YEAR, 2, 2, 2000)
        .appendLiteral(' ')
        .appendValue(ChronoField.HOUR_OF_DAY, 2)
        .appendLiteral(':')
        .appendValue(ChronoField.MINUTE_OF_HOUR, 2)
        .appendLiteral(':')
        .appendValue(ChronoField.SECOND_OF_MINUTE, 2)
        .toFormatter();

final LocalDateTime start = LocalDateTime.parse(dateStart, formatter);
final LocalDateTime stop = LocalDateTime.parse(dateStop, formatter);

final Duration between = Duration.between(start, stop);

System.out.println(start);
System.out.println(stop);
System.out.println(formatter.format(start));
System.out.println(formatter.format(stop));
System.out.println(between);
System.out.println(between.get(ChronoUnit.SECONDS));

Funcionou para mim pode tentar com isso, espero que seja útil. Deixe-me saber se houver alguma preocupação.

Date startDate = java.util.Calendar.getInstance().getTime(); //set your start time
Date endDate = java.util.Calendar.getInstance().getTime(); // set  your end time

long duration = endDate.getTime() - startDate.getTime();


long diffInSeconds = TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.toSeconds(duration);
long diffInMinutes = TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.toMinutes(duration);
long diffInHours = TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.toHours(duration);
long diffInDays = TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.toDays(duration);

Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "Diff"
        + duration + diffInDays + diffInHours + diffInMinutes + diffInSeconds, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show(); **// Toast message for android .**

System.out.println("Diff" + duration + diffInDays + diffInHours + diffInMinutes + diffInSeconds); **// Print console message for Java .**

Este é o código:

        String date1 = "07/15/2013";
        String time1 = "11:00:01";
        String date2 = "07/16/2013";
        String time2 = "22:15:10";
        String format = "MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm:ss";
        SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat(format);
        Date fromDate = sdf.parse(date1 + " " + time1);
        Date toDate = sdf.parse(date2 + " " + time2);

        long diff = toDate.getTime() - fromDate.getTime();
        String dateFormat="duration: ";
        int diffDays = (int) (diff / (24 * 60 * 60 * 1000));
        if(diffDays>0){
            dateFormat+=diffDays+" day ";
        }
        diff -= diffDays * (24 * 60 * 60 * 1000);

        int diffhours = (int) (diff / (60 * 60 * 1000));
        if(diffhours>0){
            dateFormat+=diffhours+" hour ";
        }
        diff -= diffhours * (60 * 60 * 1000);

        int diffmin = (int) (diff / (60 * 1000));
        if(diffmin>0){
            dateFormat+=diffmin+" min ";
        }
        diff -= diffmin * (60 * 1000);

        int diffsec = (int) (diff / (1000));
        if(diffsec>0){
            dateFormat+=diffsec+" sec";
        }
        System.out.println(dateFormat);

e a saída é:

duration: 1 day 11 hour 15 min 9 sec

com referência à atualização de resposta de shamim, aqui está um método que realiza a tarefa sem usar nenhuma biblioteca de terceiros. Basta copiar o método e usar

public static String getDurationTimeStamp(String date) {

        String timeDifference = "";

        //date formatter as per the coder need
        SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss");

        //parse the string date-ti
        // me to Date object
        Date startDate = null;
        try {
            startDate = sdf.parse(date);
        } catch (ParseException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

        //end date will be the current system time to calculate the lapse time difference
        //if needed, coder can add end date to whatever date
        Date endDate = new Date();

        System.out.println(startDate);
        System.out.println(endDate);

        //get the time difference in milliseconds
        long duration = endDate.getTime() - startDate.getTime();

        //now we calculate the differences in different time units
        //this long value will be the total time difference in each unit
        //i.e; total difference in seconds, total difference in minutes etc...
        long diffInSeconds = TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.toSeconds(duration);
        long diffInMinutes = TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.toMinutes(duration);
        long diffInHours = TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.toHours(duration);
        long diffInDays = TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.toDays(duration);

        //now we create the time stamps depending on the value of each unit that we get
        //as we do not have the unit in years,
        //we will see if the days difference is more that 365 days, as 365 days = 1 year
        if (diffInDays > 365) {
            //we get the year in integer not in float
            //ex- 791/365 = 2.167 in float but it will be 2 years in int
            int year = (int) (diffInDays / 365);
            timeDifference = year + " years ago";
            System.out.println(year + " years ago");
        }
        //if days are not enough to create year then get the days
        else if (diffInDays > 1) {
            timeDifference = diffInDays + " days ago";
            System.out.println(diffInDays + " days ago");
        }
        //if days value<1 then get the hours
        else if (diffInHours > 1) {
            timeDifference = diffInHours + " hours ago";
            System.out.println(diffInHours + " hours ago");
        }
        //if hours value<1 then get the minutes
        else if (diffInMinutes > 1) {
            timeDifference = diffInMinutes + " minutes ago";
            System.out.println(diffInMinutes + " minutes ago");
        }
        //if minutes value<1 then get the seconds
        else if (diffInSeconds > 1) {
            timeDifference = diffInSeconds + " seconds ago";
            System.out.println(diffInSeconds + " seconds ago");
        }

        return timeDifference;
// that's all. Happy Coding :)
    }

Resolvi o problema semelhante usando um método simples recentemente.

public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException, ParseException {
        TimeZone utc = TimeZone.getTimeZone("UTC");
        Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance(utc);
        Date until = calendar.getTime();
        calendar.add(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH, -7);
        Date since = calendar.getTime();
        long durationInSeconds  = TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.toSeconds(until.getTime() - since.getTime());

        long SECONDS_IN_A_MINUTE = 60;
        long MINUTES_IN_AN_HOUR = 60;
        long HOURS_IN_A_DAY = 24;
        long DAYS_IN_A_MONTH = 30;
        long MONTHS_IN_A_YEAR = 12;

        long sec = (durationInSeconds >= SECONDS_IN_A_MINUTE) ? durationInSeconds % SECONDS_IN_A_MINUTE : durationInSeconds;
        long min = (durationInSeconds /= SECONDS_IN_A_MINUTE) >= MINUTES_IN_AN_HOUR ? durationInSeconds%MINUTES_IN_AN_HOUR : durationInSeconds;
        long hrs = (durationInSeconds /= MINUTES_IN_AN_HOUR) >= HOURS_IN_A_DAY ? durationInSeconds % HOURS_IN_A_DAY : durationInSeconds;
        long days = (durationInSeconds /= HOURS_IN_A_DAY) >= DAYS_IN_A_MONTH ? durationInSeconds % DAYS_IN_A_MONTH : durationInSeconds;
        long months = (durationInSeconds /=DAYS_IN_A_MONTH) >= MONTHS_IN_A_YEAR ? durationInSeconds % MONTHS_IN_A_YEAR : durationInSeconds;
        long years = (durationInSeconds /= MONTHS_IN_A_YEAR);

        String duration = getDuration(sec,min,hrs,days,months,years);
        System.out.println(duration);
    }
    private static String getDuration(long secs, long mins, long hrs, long days, long months, long years) {
        StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();
        String EMPTY_STRING = "";
        sb.append(years > 0 ? years + (years > 1 ? " years " : " year "): EMPTY_STRING);
        sb.append(months > 0 ? months + (months > 1 ? " months " : " month "): EMPTY_STRING);
        sb.append(days > 0 ? days + (days > 1 ? " days " : " day "): EMPTY_STRING);
        sb.append(hrs > 0 ? hrs + (hrs > 1 ? " hours " : " hour "): EMPTY_STRING);
        sb.append(mins > 0 ? mins + (mins > 1 ? " mins " : " min "): EMPTY_STRING);
        sb.append(secs > 0 ? secs + (secs > 1 ? " secs " : " secs "): EMPTY_STRING);
        sb.append("ago");
        return sb.toString();
    }

E como esperado, imprime: 7 days ago.

Este é um programa que escrevi, que obtém o número de dias entre 2 datas (sem tempo aqui).

import java.util.Scanner;
public class HelloWorld {
 public static void main(String args[]) {
  Scanner s = new Scanner(System.in);

   else nodim[2] = 28;
   if (mm2 == 0) {
    mm2 = 12;
    yy2 = yy2 - 1;
   }
   for (; mm1 <= mm2 && yy1 <= yy2; mm1++) diff = diff + nodim[mm1];
  }
  System.out.print("No. of days from " + inp1 + " to " + inp2 + " is " + diff);
