Return Value: This method returns a LocalDateTime based on this date-time with the years added.
Exceptions: The program throws a DateTimeException which is thrown if the result exceeds the supported years range.
Below programs illustrate the LocalDateTime.plusYears() method in Java:
Program 1:
Java
// Program to illustrate the plusYears() method import java.util.*; import java.time.*; public class GfG { public static void main(String[] args) { LocalDateTime dt1 = LocalDateTime .parse( "2018-01-11T10:15:30" ); System.out.println( "LocalDateTime with 15 years added: " + dt1.plusYears( 15 )); } } |
LocalDateTime with 15 years added: 2033-01-11T10:15:30
Program 2:
Java
// Program to illustrate the plusYears() method import java.util.*; import java.time.*; public class GfG { public static void main(String[] args) { LocalDateTime dt1 = LocalDateTime .parse( "2018-01-11T08:15:30" ); System.out.println( "LocalDateTime with -2 years added: " + dt1.plusYears(- 2 )); } } |
LocalDateTime with -2 years added: 2016-01-11T08:15:30
