How to find difference between two Joda-Time DateTimes in minutes

This will get you the difference between two DateTime objects in milliseconds:

DateTime d1 = new DateTime();
DateTime d2 = new DateTime();

long diffInMillis = d2.getMillis() - d1.getMillis();

Something like...

DateTime today = new DateTime();
DateTime yesterday = today.minusDays(1);

Duration duration = new Duration(yesterday, today);
System.out.println(duration.getStandardDays());
System.out.println(duration.getStandardHours());
System.out.println(duration.getStandardMinutes());

Which outputs

1
24
1440

or

System.out.println(Minutes.minutesBetween(yesterday, today).getMinutes());

Which is probably more what you're after
