You can do this way :

String firstDate = "26/02/2019";
String firstTime = "00:00 AM";
String secondDate = "26/02/2019";
String secondTime = "12:00 PM";

String format = "dd/MM/yyyy hh:mm a";

SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat(format);

  Date dateObj1 = sdf.parse(firstDate + " " + firstTime);
 Date dateObj2 = sdf.parse(secondDate + " " + secondTime);
 System.out.println("Date Start: "+dateObj1);
 System.out.println("Date End: "+dateObj2);

long dif = dateObj1.getTime(); 
while (dif < dateObj2.getTime()) {
 Date slot = new Date(dif);
System.out.println("Hour Slot --->" + slot);
  dif += 3600000;
 }

Please don’t teach the young ones to use the long outdated and notoriously troublesome `SimpleDateFormat` class. At least not as the first option. And not without any reservation. Today we have so much better in [`java.time`, the modern Java date and time API,](https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/datetime/) and its `DateTimeFormatter`. — Ole V.V., Jan 05 '20 at 12:19
