Cálculo de días vividos desde fecha de nacimiento

Cómo calcular el total de días transcurridos desde la fecha de nacimiento a la fecha actual.

import java.util.Calendar;
import java.util.GregorianCalendar;

public class TotalLifeTimeDays {
 
 public int getLifeTimeDays(int birthYear, int birthMonth, int birthDay) {
  
  Calendar birthDayCal = new GregorianCalendar();
     Calendar currentDayCal = Calendar.getInstance();

  birthDayCal.set(birthYear, birthMonth, birthDay);    
  return (int)((currentDayCal.getTime().getTime() - birthDayCal.getTime().getTime())
     / (1000 * 60 * 60 * 24));  
 }
 
 public static void main(String[] args) {
  TotalLifeTimeDays totalLifeTimeDays = new TotalLifeTimeDays();
  int totalDays = totalLifeTimeDays.getLifeTimeDays(1982, 11, 20);
  System.out.println("Total days lived: " + totalDays);
 }
}

Android: Juego de Matemáticas

Como práctica hice este pequeño programa que intenta ser un juego de matemáticas. Operaciones básicas de suma, resta, multiplicación y división, son generadas al azar con la respuesta válida y dos respuestas incorrectas. Cada respuesta correcta acumula un punto.

JSP: Obtener la fecha actual

Dejo este pequeño código mostrando como se puede obtener la fecha actual usando código JSP. En ocasiones es preferible utilizar código del lado del servidor, en lugar de usar JavaScript, para no depender de que un usuario tiene bien configurada la fecha en su ordenador, o si hay diferencias de huso horario.

<%@ page import="java.util.*" %>
<%@ page import="java.text.SimpleDateFormat"%>
 
<%
   Date dNow = new Date();
   SimpleDateFormat ft = 
   new SimpleDateFormat ("MM/dd/yyyy");
   String currentDate = ft.format(dNow);
%>

<p>The current date is: <%=currentDate%></p>

Android: Chequear conectividad con WiFi

Para poder chequear la conectividad con WiFi primero hay que agregar los permisos respectivos en el manifiesto de Android:

<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="com.example.mytoolbox"
    android:versionCode="1"
    android:versionName="1.0" >

    <uses-sdk
        android:minSdkVersion="9"
        android:targetSdkVersion="15" />

    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
 
 ...
 
</manifest>

Aquí dejo un código que verifica la conectividad. Si no existe entonces despliega un mensaje indicando al usuario que debe haber conectividad para poder usar la aplicación. Seguidamente termina la aplicación.

private void checkWiFiConnectivity() {
  ConnectivityManager connMan =  (ConnectivityManager) 
       getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
  boolean wifiIsOn = connMan.getNetworkInfo(ConnectivityManager.TYPE_WIFI)
        .isConnectedOrConnecting();
  Log.d("GABO", "WiFi is : " + wifiIsOn);
  
  if(!wifiIsOn) {
   finishApplication();
  }  
}

private void finishApplication() {
  AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(MainActivity.this);
  builder.setMessage("You need WiFi connection to access this App!");
  builder.setCancelable(false);
     
  builder.setPositiveButton("OK", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
   
   @Override
   public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
       MainActivity.this.finish();    
   }
  });
     
  AlertDialog alert = builder.create();
  alert.show();  
}
