Depending on the time of the day, I am setting an alarm, defined by alarmTime, for a certain time. If it's before 9am, then one condition runs, if it's between 9am-11am, another condition runs, and it it's after 11am, another condition runs. However, after 9am the if(currentTime.before(at9)) returns true, regardless of whether its 12pm, 1pm, etc, when it should return false. Why does this happen?
// Get a calendar instance for the actual alarm
Calendar alarmTime = Calendar.getInstance();
// get the current time
Calendar currentTime = (Calendar) alarmTime.clone();
// This will set the values to the calendar
currentTime.getTime();
//get the time at 9AM
Calendar at9 = (Calendar) alarmTime.clone();
at9.set(Calendar.HOUR, 9);
at9.set(Calendar.MINUTE,0);
at9.set(Calendar.SECOND,0);
// This will set the values to the calendar
at9.getTime();
//get the time at 11AM
Calendar at11 = (Calendar) alarmTime.clone();
at11.set(Calendar.HOUR, 11);
at11.set(Calendar.MINUTE,0);
at11.set(Calendar.SECOND,0);
// This will set the values to the calendar
at11.getTime();
if(currentTime.before(at9)){// if it's less than 9am right now
//set the alarm for 9am current day
//the day should stay the same
alarmTime.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, Constants.REFRESH_TIME_HOUR);
alarmTime.set(Calendar.MINUTE,20);
alarmTime.set(Calendar.SECOND, 0);
}
else if(currentTime.after(at9) && currentTime.before(at11)){
// Day should stay the same
// Hour should stay he same
alarmTime.add(Calendar.MINUTE, Constants.REFRESH_TIME_MINUTES);
alarmTime.set(Calendar.SECOND, 0);
}
else{ //current time is after 11
alarmTime.add(Calendar.DAY_OF_YEAR,1);
alarmTime.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, Constants.REFRESH_TIME_HOUR);
alarmTime.set(Calendar.MINUTE,1);
alarmTime.set(Calendar.SECOND, 0);
}
