How to compare LocalDate instances Java 8

LocalDate ld ....;
LocalDateTime ldtime ...;

ld.isEqual(LocalDate.from(ldtime));

Using equals() LocalDate does override equals:

int compareTo0(LocalDate otherDate) {
    int cmp = (year - otherDate.year);
    if (cmp == 0) {
        cmp = (month - otherDate.month);
        if (cmp == 0) {
            cmp = (day - otherDate.day);
        }
    }
    return cmp;
}

If you are not happy with the result of equals(), you are good using the predefined methods of LocalDate.

• isAfter()
• isBefore()
• isEqual()

Notice that all of those method are using the compareTo0() method and just check the cmp value. if you are still getting weird result (which you shouldn't), please attach an example of input and output
