Date Falls On A Weekend?

[MethadoneBoy]

Hi guys,

Is there any way to determine if a particular date falls on a Weekend using the Calendar class? Just curious to see if there's a way to do it without resorting to

int currentday = Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK

if (currentday == Calendar.SATURDAY || currentday == Calendar.SUNDAY)

//etc...

going through the javadoc for the calandar class I can't see any simplier way then comparing it to saturday and sunday

There isn't. Of course, the OP's code is simply incorrect. The correct code is

int currentday = new GregorianCalendar().get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK);
