参考までに、サードパーティのJoda-Timeライブラリを使用する場合に使用する簡単なコードを次に示します。MinusDays()メソッドを使用したDateTimeクラスを参照してください。
org.joda.time.DateTime today = new org.joda.time.DateTime();
System.out.println("Today: " + today );
org.joda.time.DateTime dateBefore = today.minusDays(25);
System.out.println("Minus 25 days: " + dateBefore );
実行時:
Today: 2013-11-01T02:48:01.709-07:00
Minus 25 days: 2013-10-07T02:48:01.709-07:00
