Getting holidays from the android calendar - java

As the title says, is it possible to get the holidays from the android calendar? For instance Christmas Eve, how can I determine that this is a holiday in my android application?

The calendar app does not know about holidays and other events. However, you can display in it multiple calendars so include a calendar that shows the events you want and you will have access to it via the calendar API.
For example, here is a calendar that you can add to your Google calendar:
https://www.google.com/calendar/b/0/embed?src=usa__en#holiday.calendar.google.com&gsessionid=OK

As #Tim has said, there is no intrinsic information stored within the Calendar application about holidays. But once you figure out the algorithm for each day you can determine annually when each holiday will fall.
This link might contain information that will help you determine the algorithm for each holiday.

How to create a Calendar or Day Picker in AnyLogic?

I want to create a UI to enable the user to set specific configuration from date1 to date2. To pick the dates I want the calendar to pop up.
To create the calendar, I can put a combo box to choose the month, along with 30 buttons as representative of the days (enabling/disabling some days based on the selected month).
If you know a better way to do this, I would be very thankful if you share it with me!
Thanks!
Please don't do it like that. You have the full power of Java at your hands. There are many Java libraries for date pickers like this one:

Download the .jar file and add it to your model dependencies. Then you can create the date picker object using the respective API.
Here is an AnyLogic example model but it currently only works in AnyLogic 7 (since 8 massively changed how things are displayed). To get it working in AL 8, you might need to ask AL support.

Android show information in a specific day on calendar

Not a problem per se but I am figuring out how to do something. In my app, I shall save some workout for every specific client. Any workout will be doing different from week to week; i.e: rep scheme in the week one shall be different from the week two, and so on.
So, how to show the user that in the calendar? Should I save in every workout the day it should be performed and then see if it's the same day and show it? Or how to implement this? The only way I thought to implement this is save in every workout the day that it should be performed and show it in a textview and all the info behind relationated with the workout without calendar use but don't know if this approach would be the best
I have searched on the web but found nothing. If you could give me a hint would be awesome.
Thanks in advance!

How to use setQ() method in google calendar api v3 java

Can someone give me an example on how to use the setQ() method on google calendar v3 api for calendar events in Java? I try the setQ() method in google drive and it's worked fine, so I want to know how to do the same thing in google calendar events.
So for example, I have an event description in my 'primary' calendar that contains the word 'event test' and I want to retrieve all events in this 'primary' calendar that has its description contains the word 'event test'. Because I want to avoid looping all the hundreds or thousands of events in my calendar to find a specific event.
Thanks.
Events feed = client.events().list("calendarId").setQ("search text").execute();

Using Two JCalender for SWT Application

From Day Cannot be Today's Date or Later.
To Date cannot be maximum than today's date & From Date.
I have to set the code in such a way that after selecting a particular date on From date, To date will be enabled.
Sample code will be helpful.
I would recommend you use Joda Time for your date calculations. With regards to enabling and disabling your date values, Swing components have setEnabled() methods which you can use to either disable or enable the component.
That being said, you did not specify what have you tried... and are requesting code... I doubt those are two steps in the right direction for using this site...

Java. Creating a date according to user timezone in web-application

I have a Java web-application. In some places there is showing of dates. I want to display the date according to user timezone. How do I create a date for the show if I know the timezone the user?
I use the class Date.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
There is no standard way to do this. On client side, you may capture time using Java script and send that information to the server. On server side, you can covert the time to Coordinated Universal Time.
Use GregorianCalendar rather than Date when you have any requirements besides basic display. You can create one for the current time by time-zone using new GregorianCalendar(TimeZone).
