Attributes

Remarks

Checks if this date is before the specified date ignoring the chronology.

This method differs from the comparison in #compareTo in that it only compares the underlying date and not the chronology. This allows dates in different calendar systems to be compared based on the time-line position. This is equivalent to using date1.toEpochDay() < date2.toEpochDay().

This default implementation performs the comparison based on the epoch-day.
