minusMinutes() method of a ZonedDateTime class used to subtract the number of minutes from this ZonedDateTime and return a copy of ZonedDateTime after subtraction.This method operates on the instant time-line, such that subtracting one minute will always be a duration of one minute earlier. This instance is immutable and unaffected by this method call.
Syntax:
public ZonedDateTime minusMinutes(long minutes)
Parameters: This method accepts a single parameter minutes which represents the minutes to subtract, It can be negative.
Return value: This method returns a ZonedDateTime based on this date-time with the minutes subtracted, not null.
Exception: This method throws DateTimeException if the result exceeds the supported date range.
Below programs illustrate the minusMinutes() method:
Program 1:
// Java program to demonstrate// ZonedDateTime.minusMinutes() method  import java.time.*;  public class GFG {    public static void main(String[] args)    {          // create a ZonedDateTime object        ZonedDateTime zoneddatetime            = ZonedDateTime.parse(                "2018-12-06T19:21:12.123+05:30[Asia/Calcutta]");          // print instance        System.out.println("ZonedDateTime before"                           + " subtracting minutes: "                           + zoneddatetime);          // subtract 15 minutes        ZonedDateTime returnvalue            = zoneddatetime.minusMinutes(15);          // print result        System.out.println("ZonedDateTime after "                           + " subtracting 15 minutes: "                           + returnvalue);    }} |
ZonedDateTime before subtracting minutes: 2018-12-06T19:21:12.123+05:30[Asia/Calcutta]
ZonedDateTime after subtracting 15 minutes: 2018-12-06T19:06:12.123+05:30[Asia/Calcutta]
Program 2:
// Java program to demonstrate// ZonedDateTime.minusMinutes() method  import java.time.*;  public class GFG {    public static void main(String[] args)    {          // create a ZonedDateTime object        ZonedDateTime zoneddatetime            = ZonedDateTime.parse(                "2018-10-25T23:12:31.123+02:00[Europe/Paris]");          // print instance        System.out.println("ZonedDateTime before"                           + " subtracting minutes: "                           + zoneddatetime);          // subtract 20 minutes        ZonedDateTime returnvalue            = zoneddatetime.minusMinutes(20);          // print result        System.out.println("ZonedDateTime after "                           + " subtracting 20 minutes: "                           + returnvalue);    }} |
ZonedDateTime before subtracting minutes: 2018-10-25T23:12:31.123+02:00[Europe/Paris]
ZonedDateTime after subtracting 20 minutes: 2018-10-25T22:52:31.123+02:00[Europe/Paris]
