DatePicker - both for current/future dates - Compareto method displays the value 1

Please note that compareTo() function returns the data in -1, 0 and 1, which represent few things as shown below on the java doc.

public static void datapicker(String date) {
		SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("dd/MM/yyyy");
		Date dateToBeSelected;
		try {
			dateToBeSelected = sdf.parse(date);
			Date currentdate = new Date();
			System.out.println("Date to be selected is " + dateToBeSelected);
			System.out.println("Current date is " + currentdate);
			if (0 == currentdate.compareTo(dateToBeSelected)) {
				System.out.println("The date and time matches");
			} else if (0 > currentdate.compareTo(dateToBeSelected)) {
				System.out.println("The date is greater than the current date and time");
			} else {
				System.out.println("The date is lesser than current date and time");
			}
		} catch (ParseException e) {
			// TODO Auto-generated catch block
			e.printStackTrace();
		}
	}
