The isBefore() method of ChronoLocalDate interface in Java checks if this date is before the specified date and returns a boolean value stating the same.
Syntax:
public boolean isAfter(ChronoLocalDate date2)
Parameter: This method accept a single mandatory parameter date2 the other date to compare to and not null.
Return Value: The function returns true if this date is before the specified date.
Below programs illustrate the isBefore() method of ChronoLocalDate in Java:
Program 1:
// Program to illustrate the isBefore() method  import java.util.*;import java.time.*;import java.time.chrono.*;  public class GfG {    public static void main(String[] args)    {        // Parses the first date        ChronoLocalDate dt1            = LocalDate.parse("2018-11-27");          // Parses the second date        ChronoLocalDate dt2            = LocalDate.parse("2017-11-27");          // Check if the specified date        // is before this date        System.out.println(dt1.isBefore(dt2));    }} |
Output:
false
Program 2:
// Program to illustrate the isBefore() method  import java.util.*;import java.time.*;import java.time.chrono.*;  public class GfG {    public static void main(String[] args)    {        // Parses the first date        ChronoLocalDate dt1            = LocalDate.parse("2018-11-27");          // Parses the second date        ChronoLocalDate dt2            = LocalDate.parse("2019-11-27");          // Check if the specified date        // is before this date        System.out.println(dt1.isBefore(dt2));    }} |
Output:
true
