The dateNow() method of java.time.chrono.IsoChronology class is used get the current local date according to Iso calendar system from the specified clock object.
Syntax:
public LocalDate dateNow(Clock clock)
Parameter: This method takes the object of clock as a parameter.
Return Value: This method returns the LocalDate according to Hijrah calendar system from the specified clock object.
Below are the examples to illustrate the dateNow() method:
Example 1:
// Java program to demonstrate// dateNow() method import java.util.*;import java.io.*;import java.time.*;import java.time.chrono.*; public class GFG { public static void main(String[] argv) { try { // creating and initializing LocalDate Object LocalDate hidate = LocalDate.now(); // getting IsoChronology used in localDate IsoChronology crono = hidate.getChronology(); // creating and initializing clock object Clock clock = Clock.systemUTC(); // getting LocalDate for the // given clock object // by using dateNow() method LocalDate date = crono.dateNow(clock); // display the result System.out.println("LocalDate is: " + date); } catch (DateTimeException e) { System.out.println("passed parameter can " + "not form a date"); System.out.println("Exception thrown: " + e); } }} |
Output:
LocalDate is: 2020-03-08
Example 2:
// Java program to demonstrate// dateNow() method import java.util.*;import java.io.*;import java.time.*;import java.time.chrono.*; public class GFG { public static void main(String[] argv) { try { // creating and initializing LocalDate Object LocalDate hidate = LocalDate.now(); // getting IsoChronology used in localDate IsoChronology crono = hidate.getChronology(); // creating and initializing clock object Clock clock = Clock.systemUTC(); // setting clock clock = Clock.tick(clock, Duration.ofDays(100)); // getting LocalDate for the // given clock object // by using dateNow() method LocalDate date = crono.dateNow(clock); // display the result System.out.println("LocalDate is: " + date); } catch (DateTimeException e) { System.out.println("passed parameter can " + "not form a date"); System.out.println("Exception thrown: " + e); } }} |
Output:
LocalDate is: 2020-02-08
