The get() method of ChronoPeriod interface in Java is used to get the value of the requested unit(YEARS, MONTHS or DAYS) given in the argument from this ChronoPeriod.
Syntax:
long get(TemporalUnit unit)
Parameters: This method accepts a single parameter unit of type TemporalUnit which is the unit to get required unit.
Return Value: This function returns the long value of the requested unit.
Exceptions:
- DateTimeException – This method throws DateTimeException, if the unit in argument is not supported.
- UnsupportedTemporalTypeException – This method throws UnsupportedTemporalTypeException if the unit given in argument is not supported.
Below programs illustrate the above method:
Program 1:
// Java code to show the function get()// which gives the requested unit  import java.time.*;import java.time.chrono.*;import java.time.temporal.ChronoUnit;  public class ChronoPeriodDemo {      // Function to get requested unit    static void getUnit(int year, int months, int days)    {        ChronoPeriod period = Period.of(year, months, days);        System.out.println(period.get(ChronoUnit.DAYS));    }      // Driver Code    public static void main(String[] args)    {          int year = 8;        int months = 5;        int days = 25;          getUnit(year, months, days);    }} |
Output:
25
Program 2:
// Java code to show the function get()// which gives the requested unit  import java.time.*;import java.time.chrono.*;import java.time.temporal.ChronoUnit;  public class ChronoPeriodDemo {      // Function to get requested unit    static void getUnit(int year, int months, int days)    {        ChronoPeriod period = Period.of(year, months, days);        System.out.println(period.get(ChronoUnit.YEARS));    }      // Driver Code    public static void main(String[] args)    {          int year = 11;        int months = 3;        int days = 21;          getUnit(year, months, days);    }} |
Output:
11
