Time: How to get the next friday ?

java.time
In the java 8 and later versions we have framework called java.time. Here ,in order to get the next or previous day-of-week we can use  TemporalAdjusters.

private LocalDate calcNextFriday(LocalDate d) {
  return d.with(TemporalAdjusters.next(DayOfWeek.FRIDAY));
}

Try to use this code,

private LocalDate calcNextFriday3(LocalDate d) {
    return d.isBefore(d.dayOfWeek().setCopy(5))?d.dayOfWeek().setCopy(5):d.plusWeeks(1).dayOfWeek().setCopy(5);
}

Otherwise use this one,

private LocalDate calcNextDay(LocalDate d, int weekday) {
    return (d.getDayOfWeek() < weekday)?d.withDayOfWeek(weekday):d.plusWeeks(1).withDayOfWeek(weekday);
}
 
private LocalDate calcNextFriday2(LocalDate d) {
    return calcNextDay(d,DateTimeConstants.FRIDAY);
}

if (d.getDayOfWeek() < DateTimeConstants.FRIDAY) {
    return d.withDayOfWeek(DateTimeConstants.FRIDAY));
} else if (d.getDayOfWeek() == DateTimeConstants.FRIDAY) {
    // almost useless branch, could be merged with the one above
    return d;
} else {
    return d.plusWeeks(1).withDayOfWeek(DateTimeConstants.FRIDAY));
}

another simple kind of approach,

private LocalDate calcNextFriday(LocalDate d) {
    if (d.getDayOfWeek() < DateTimeConstants.FRIDAY) {
        d = d.withDayOfWeek(DateTimeConstants.FRIDAY));
    } else {
        d = d.plusWeeks(1).withDayOfWeek(DateTimeConstants.FRIDAY));
    }
    return d; // note that there's a possibility original object is returned
}

More short form,

private LocalDate calcNextFriday(LocalDate d) {
    if (d.getDayOfWeek() >= DateTimeConstants.FRIDAY) {
        d = d.plusWeeks(1);
    }
    return d.withDayOfWeek(DateTimeConstants.FRIDAY);
}

It’s possible to do it in a much easier to read way:

if (d.getDayOfWeek() < DateTimeConstants.FRIDAY) {
    return d.withDayOfWeek(DateTimeConstants.FRIDAY));
} else if (d.getDayOfWeek() == DateTimeConstants.FRIDAY) {
    // almost useless branch, could be merged with the one above
    return d;
} else {
    return d.plusWeeks(1).withDayOfWeek(DateTimeConstants.FRIDAY));
}

or in a bit shorter form

private LocalDate calcNextFriday(LocalDate d) {    
    if (d.getDayOfWeek() < DateTimeConstants.FRIDAY) {
        d = d.withDayOfWeek(DateTimeConstants.FRIDAY));
    } else {
        d = d.plusWeeks(1).withDayOfWeek(DateTimeConstants.FRIDAY));
    }    
    return d; // note that there's a possibility original object is returned
}

or even shorter

private LocalDate calcNextFriday(LocalDate d) {
    if (d.getDayOfWeek() >= DateTimeConstants.FRIDAY) {
        d = d.plusWeeks(1);
    }
    return d.withDayOfWeek(DateTimeConstants.FRIDAY);
}

private LocalDate calcNextFriday3(LocalDate d) {
    return d.isBefore(d.dayOfWeek().setCopy(5))?d.dayOfWeek().setCopy(5):d.plusWeeks(1).dayOfWeek().setCopy(5);
}

Alternative approach

private LocalDate calcNextDay(LocalDate d, int weekday) {
    return (d.getDayOfWeek() < weekday)?d.withDayOfWeek(weekday):d.plusWeeks(1).withDayOfWeek(weekday);
}


private LocalDate calcNextFriday2(LocalDate d) {
    return calcNextDay(d,DateTimeConstants.FRIDAY);
}
