title: Current time and range
body: <p>I want to get the current time and compare that with time range provided by me.<br>
  for example I want to set the greeting message of Good morning if the current time is between 6:00 AM to 11:59 AM</p>
  
  <p>Here is some code of my android Application</p>
  
  <pre><code>import java.text.DateFormat; 
  import java.text.SimpleDateFormat; 
  import java.util.Calendar; 
  import java.util.Date; 
  import java.util.TimeZone;
  
  public class MainActivity extends Activity implements View.OnClickListener {
  
      protected Calendar firstBound;
      protected Calendar secondBound;
      protected static Calendar cal;
      protected static String timeString = null;
      protected static String greetString = null;
      protected static DateFormat date;
      Button greetButton;
  
      @Override
      protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
          super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
          setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
  
          // get a reference to the greetButton on the UI
          greetButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.greetButton);
          cal = Calendar.getInstance(TimeZone.getDefault());
  
          Date currentLocalTime = cal.getTime();
          date = new SimpleDateFormat("HH:mm");
          timeString = date.format(currentLocalTime);
          char h1 = timeString.charAt(0);
          char h2 = timeString.charAt(1);
          char m1 = timeString.charAt(3);
          char m2 = timeString.charAt(4);
          cal.set(Calendar.HOUR,Character.getNumericValue(h1) + Character.getNumericValue(h2));
          cal.set(Calendar.MINUTE,Character.getNumericValue(m1) + Character.getNumericValue(m2));
          // Set the onClickListener for the greetButton to be this class.
          // This requires that the class implement the View.OnClickListener callback
          // the onClick() method
          greetButton.setOnClickListener(this);
      }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And My On Click method is </p>
  
  <pre><code>public void onClick(View v) {       
      TextView textMessage = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textMessage);
      EditText editFriendName = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editFriendName);       
      String friendName = editFriendName.getText().toString();
      switch (v.getId()) {
          case R.id.greetButton:
              // set the string being displayed by the TextView to the greeting
              if(cal.after(setFirstBoundLimits(14, 00)) &amp;&amp; cal.before(setSecondBoundLimits(18, 00))){
                  Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, timeString, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
              }
              // message for the friend
              //textMessage.setText(getString(R.string.greetstring) + friendName + "!");
          break;
          default:
          break;
      }
  }
  private Calendar setFirstBoundLimits(int hh, int mm){
      firstBound = Calendar.getInstance();
      firstBound.set(Calendar.HOUR, hh);
      firstBound.set(Calendar.MINUTE, mm);
      return firstBound;
  }
  </code></pre>
