import java.util.Calendar;

public class AddDaysToCurrentDate {

  public static void main(String[] args) {
 
    //create Calendar instance
    Calendar now = Calendar.getInstance();
 
    System.out.println("Current date : " + (now.get(Calendar.MONTH) + 1)
                        + "-"
                        + now.get(Calendar.DATE)
                        + "-"
                        + now.get(Calendar.YEAR));
 
    //add days to current date using Calendar.add method
    now.add(Calendar.DATE,1);

    System.out.println("date after one day : " + (now.get(Calendar.MONTH) + 1)
                        + "-"
                        + now.get(Calendar.DATE)
                        + "-"
                        + now.get(Calendar.YEAR));

 
    //substract days from current date using Calendar.add method
    now = Calendar.getInstance();
    now.add(Calendar.DATE, -10);

    System.out.println("date before 10 days : " + (now.get(Calendar.MONTH) + 1)
                        + "-"
                        + now.get(Calendar.DATE)
                        + "-"
                        + now.get(Calendar.YEAR));
 
  }
}

/*
Typical output would be
Current date : 12-25-2007
date after one day : 12-26-2007
date before 10 days : 12-15-2007
