Custom datepicker with few years to select - java

I have searched in google and hunted in stackoverflow.com for a particular solution. The problem is that, I want to create a custom date picker. The date picker dialog will open up on click of a button with a custom tile bar and maybe a custom background. The most important customization will be the years showing up in the picker. What I want to do is, I will allow the users to select a date which is minimum 18 years old from today and it can go up to a maximum of 50 years. I have seen solutions to this problem which suggests to use view.updateDate on the datepicker to reset the datepicker inside the date range if the user tries to select anything out of the range. But, I do not want to even show the years which are not in the range. I only want the users to see the valid years from which he can select. The rest of the years should not even show up.
How can I customize the datepicker to give me the desired output?

datePickerListener, year, month, day);

How do I automate text display from a .json file based on the current date?

My team is trying to build a basic app that displays different text depending on what day of the year it is. The information that needs to be displayed is currently in the form of .json files, but any solution (involving manually inputting the data) would work for our purposes. We have three different tabs in our app that display the text for today, tomorrow, and for the week as a whole. Currently the string variables in the string.xml are hard coded, and used in the tab_fragment.xml to provide a text output to the different tabs. How can I use Android Studio to automate the displayed text depending on the date?

You can do this with SimpleDateFormat. You pass in a Date object, and it can format it into the correct text, such as Friday.
Date now = new Date();
SimpleDateFormat simpleDateformat = new SimpleDateFormat("E"); // the day of the week abbreviated
System.out.println(simpleDateformat.format(now));
simpleDateformat = new SimpleDateFormat("EEEE"); // the day of the week spelled out completely
System.out.println(simpleDateformat.format(now));
new Date() will return the current date of the device. If you want to display other days, you need to create multiple Date objects.

How do I auto fill combo boxes? java

Ok so say I'm doing an event scheduler and i have 3 combo boxes, first combo box is the month, the second is the date, and the third is the year. Is it possible using the Date Object in Java to have it automatically fill the options that you can select from?

The DateFormatSymbols class can be used to get the names of months you can use to fill in the combobox.
String months[]=(new DateFormatSymbols()).getMonths();
Don't forget that Java's months start with 0=January
The Calendar class can be used to determine the number of days in a given month, as well as the current year.
Calendar cal=Calendar.getInstance()
cal.setTime(System.currentTimeMillis() );
cal.set(Calendar.MONTH, Calendar.FEBRUARY);
int days=cal.getActualMaximum(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);

Why do you want to use Date object to do that? if your goal is to fill all the months, days and several years in combo boxes then you can just add them directly in JCombo by using combo.addItem("<string value"). Hope this helps...

yes that possible, but that will be too hard job to synchronize all three JComboBoxes correctly for valid Year + Month + Day
if not Custom JCalendar (suggestion from your last post), then maybe JSpinner
