ThaiBuddhistDate now(Clock) method in Java with Example

The now() method of java.time.chrono.ThaiBuddhistDate class is used to get the current ThaiBuddhist date according to the ThaiBuddhist calendar system from the specified clock.

Syntax:

public static ThaiBuddhistDate
              now(Clock clock)

Parameter: This method takes the object of the clock on the basis of which ThaiBuddhist date is going to be formed.

Return Value: This method returns the current ThaiBuddhist date according to the ThaiBuddhist calendar system from the specified clock.

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

Example 1:




// Java program to demonstrate now() 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 clock
            Clock clock
                = Clock.systemUTC();
  
            // Creating and initializing
            // ThaiBuddhistDate Object
            ThaiBuddhistDate hidate
                = ThaiBuddhistDate.now(clock);
  
            // Display the result
            System.out.println(
                "ThaiBuddhistDate: "
                + hidate);
        }
        catch (DateTimeException e) {
  
            System.out.println(
                "Passed parameter can"
                + " not form a date");
  
            System.out.println(
                "Exception thrown: "
                + e);
        }
    }
}


Output:

ThaiBuddhistDate: ThaiBuddhist BE 2563-05-03

Example 2:




// Java program to demonstrate now() 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 clock
            Clock clock
                = Clock.systemDefaultZone();
  
            // Creating and initializing
            // ThaiBuddhistDate Object
            ThaiBuddhistDate hidate
                = ThaiBuddhistDate.now(clock);
  
            // Display the result
            System.out.println(
                "ThaiBuddhistDate: "
                + hidate);
        }
        catch (DateTimeException e) {
            System.out.println(
                "Passed parameter can"
                + " not form a date");
  
            System.out.println(
                "Exception thrown: "
                + e);
        }
    }
}


Output:

ThaiBuddhistDate: ThaiBuddhist BE 2563-05-03
