Best way to check whether two dates are the same calendar day in Groovy?

Obviously I could create a Calendar object with the date and use get(DAY) on it, but knowing Groovy, I would guess there is an easier, quicker way I just don't know about?

Answer

 (date1..date2).size() == 1   //true if two dates are on same calendar day
+3  A: 

Quickly opened the Groovy In Action book and found the following sample that should help:

def today = new Date()

def yesterday = today-1

assert (yesterday..today).size() == 2
