HijrahDate getLong() method in Java with Example

The getLong() method of java.time.chrono.HijrahDate class is used to retrieve the passed temporal field in long format.

Syntax:

public long getLong(TemporalField field)

Parameter: This method takes any type of temporal field as a parameter.

Return Value: This method returns the passed temporal field in long format.

Below are the examples to illustrate the getLong() method:

Example 1:

Java




// Java program to demonstrate
// getLong() method
  
import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
import java.time.*;
import java.time.chrono.*;
import java.time.temporal.*;
  
public class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] argv)
    {
        try {
  
            // creating and initializing
            // HijrahDate Object
            HijrahDate hidate = HijrahDate.now();
  
            // getting temporal field in long format
            // by using getLong() method
            long tempo
                = hidate.getLong(ChronoField.EPOCH_DAY);
  
            // display the result
            System.out.println(
                "specified temporal field"
                + "in long format: "
                + tempo);
        }
        catch (DateTimeException e) {
            System.out.println("passed parameter can"
                               + " not form a date");
            System.out.println("Exception thrown: "
                               + e);
        }
    }
}


Output:

specified temporal fieldin long format: 18304

Example 2:

Java




// Java program to demonstrate
// getLong() method
  
import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
import java.time.*;
import java.time.chrono.*;
import java.time.temporal.*;
  
public class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] argv)
    {
        try {
            // creating and initializing
            // HijrahDate Object
            HijrahDate hidate = HijrahDate.now();
  
            // getting temporal field in long format
            // by using getLong() method
            long tempo
                = hidate.getLong(ChronoField.DAY_OF_WEEK);
  
            // display the result
            System.out.println("specified temporal field"
                               + " in long format: "
                               + tempo);
        }
        catch (DateTimeException e) {
            System.out.println("passed parameter can"
                               + " not form a date");
            System.out.println("Exception thrown: "
                               + e);
        }
    }
}


Output:

specified temporal field in long format: 3
