How to create multiple objects based on frequency and date
<p>for some reason, I am unable to figure how to code it in a clean way.
I have a task object and this object has a start date and end date. I want to pass this object to method that will take this task, clone it X number of times according to the frequency and set its start date to the occurance date.</p>

<p>Offcourse, things can be much better illustrated by examples:
So lets say  I have task that has start date of June 1 ,2012 and end date of September 15, 2012. The frequency is set to monthly. I want to pass this task to a method that would create an array of 4 tasks for me (June, July, Aug, September) of whose the start date is set to the first of the respective month</p>

<pre><code>ArrayList&lt;task&gt; spawnTasks(Task task, Frequency Monthly){
    ArrayList&lt;Task&gt; arr  = new  ArrayList&lt;Task&gt;();

    Task TaskJune = task.clone();
    TaskJune.setStartDate("June, 1, 2012");       

    Task TaskJuly = task.clone();
    TaskJuly.setStartDate("July, 1, 2012");     

    Task TaskAug = task.clone();
    Taskaug.setStartDate("Aug, 1, 2012");     

    Task TaskSept = task.clone();
    TaskSept.setStartDate("Sept, 1, 2012");     

}
</code></pre>

<p>So as you can see I created the task once a month because frequency is monthly ( I can have biweekly or monthly only) and it happened on the 1st because thats the start date and it never exceeded september because the enddate is sept 15.</p>

<p>I know I have to use Calendar and loop to do it but I just can't figure it out</p>
