Java 8 LocalDateTime example.


LocalDateTime is a date-time without a time-zone in the ISO-8601 calendar system, such as 2016-12-03T10:15:30.

LocalDateTime is an immutable date-time object that represents a date-time, often viewed as year-month-day-hour-minute-second. Other date and time fields, such as day-of-year, day-of-week and week-of-year, can also be accessed. Time is represented to nanosecond precision.

This class does not store or represent a time-zone. Instead, it is a description of the date, as used for birthdays, combined with the local time as seen on a wall clock. It cannot represent an instant on the time-line without additional information such as an offset or time-zone.

LocalDateTime class is immutable and thread-safe.

DateTimeIntroEx
package com.java2novice.datetime;

import java.time.LocalDate;
import java.time.LocalDateTime;
import java.time.Month;

public class DateTimeIntroEx {

	public static void main(String[] args) {

		// get current date and time
		LocalDateTime currTime = LocalDateTime.now();
		System.out.println("current date time: "+currTime);

		// get date alone
		LocalDate d1 = currTime.toLocalDate();
		System.out.println("current date: " + d1);

		// extract date properties
		Month mnt = currTime.getMonth();
		System.out.println("Month: "+mnt.getValue());
		int dayOfMonth = currTime.getDayOfMonth();
		System.out.println("Day of the month: "+dayOfMonth);
		int year = currTime.getYear();
		System.out.println("Year: "+year);

		// extract time properties
		int hour = currTime.getHour();
		System.out.println("current hour: "+hour);
		int minutes = currTime.getMinute();
		System.out.println("current minutes: "+minutes);
		int seconds = currTime.getSecond();
		System.out.println("current seconds: "+seconds);
	}
}

Output:
current date time: 2016-12-15T11:50:36.955
current date: 2016-12-15
Month: 12
Day of the month: 15
Year: 2016
current hour: 11
current minutes: 50
current seconds: 36

Exception Vs Error
An error is an irrecoverable condition occurring at runtime like out of memory error. These kind of jvm errors cannot be handled at runtime. Exceptions are because of condition failures, which can be handled easily at runtime.
