      Parameters:
      pastDate - A date in the past
      format - The format for the pastDate
      Returns:
      "x ago on "

    • handleUnit

      private static String handleUnit(Calendar then, Calendar now, Integer field)
      Checks to see if the unit we're comparing is less than the difference of the given "then" and "now" dates in milliseconds.
      Parameters:
      then - The date we're evaluating
      now - The current time
      field - The field which we're evaluating ("units")
      Returns:
      null if then is 0 "units" from now, otherwise a displayable string that will notify the user how long ago then was from now.
