End-date greater than start-date validation android

Issue

I have two EditText's. One with start date and other with end date. I need to make a validation and check if end date is greater than start-date. I don't know how i can do this.

In my code i make the difference bettween two dates in days, and now i also need to check if end date is greater than start-date

Here is my code:

             //EditText with string of start date
            dataInicio = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.ses_dpDataIni);
             //EditText with string of end date
    dataFim = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.ses_dpDataFim);

             //Convert String to calendar to check the difference between two dates..
    try{
    dateInic = dataInicio.getText().toString();
    dateFim = dataFim.getText().toString();

    calInic=Calendar.getInstance();
    calFim = Calendar.getInstance();
    calInic.setTime(form.parse(dateInic));
    calFim.setTime(form.parse(dateFim));
    }
     catch (ParseException e) { 
         e.printStackTrace(); 
    } 
    Log.w(SessaoQuotaEdit.class.getName(),"DIFERENCA DE DIAS"  +daysBetween(calInic,calFim));
    tvDiasQuotas = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.ses_tvNumDiasQuota);
    tvDiasQuotas.setText("NUMBER OF DAYS: " +daysBetween(calInic,calFim));

            //CHECK IS END-DATE IS GREATER THAN START-DATE
             .............
             .............

Can you help me? Thanks :)

Solution

SimpleDateFormat dfDate  = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd");
public static boolean checkDates("2012-07-12", "2012-06-12)"    {
    boolean b = false;
    try {
        if(dfDate.parse(d1).before(dfDate.parse(d2)))
        {
            b = true;//If start date is before end date
        }
        else if(dfDate.parse(d1).equals(dfDate.parse(d2)))
        {
            b = true;//If two dates are equal
        }
        else
        {
            b = false; //If start date is after the end date
        }
    } catch (ParseException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
    return b;
}
