Below, I have a Groovy script that uses the 1.6 Joda Time library to find the difference between two dates.

 import org.joda.time.*
    ...
 def i = new Interval(startDate.getTime(),endDate.getTime())
 def p = i.toPeriod()

 println "Time Difference: " + p.getSeconds() + "." + p.getMillis() + " Seconds"



In addition to Seconds and Milliseconds, you can get the number of Days, Hours, Minutes, Months, Weeks, and Years.
