Get values chosen from Datepicker and store in variable on each selection

Question

How can I get the dates a user has chosen to and from in my datepicker each time. The user will press a button to open the calendar, then chooses the dates from and to. After this is chosen the dates get appended to a TextView. But how can I get the dates each time to store into a variable as I will need to use each date as a value.?

Answer 1

Use OnDateSetListener. something like this

 int year,monthofyear,dayofmonth;
  dpd = new DatePickerDialog.OnDateSetListener() {

        @Override
        public void onDateSet(DatePicker view, int year, int monthOfYear,
                int dayOfMonth) {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub
            cal.set(Calendar.YEAR, year);
            cal.set(Calendar.MONTH, monthOfYear);
            cal.set(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH, dayOfMonth);

            preview.setText(new StringBuilder().append(year+"/")
                    .append(monthOfYear+"/").append(dayOfMonth));
        }
    };
