Java Date Time - LocalTime Example

Example

The following code shows how to get hours and minutes between local time in different time zone.

import java.time.LocalTime;
import java.time.ZoneId;
import java.time.temporal.ChronoUnit;
/*from   w  ww.  j a  va2s.co  m*/
public class Main {
  public static void main(String... args) {
    ZoneId zone1 = ZoneId.of("Europe/Berlin");
    ZoneId zone2 = ZoneId.of("Brazil/East");

    LocalTime now1 = LocalTime.now(zone1);
    LocalTime now2 = LocalTime.now(zone2);

    System.out.println(now1);
    System.out.println(now2);

    long hoursBetween = ChronoUnit.HOURS.between(now1, now2);
    long minutesBetween = ChronoUnit.MINUTES.between(now1, now2);
    System.out.println(hoursBetween);
    System.out.println(minutesBetween);


  }
}

The code above generates the following result.

Example 2

The following code shows how to parse string to LocalTime with short German format.

import java.time.LocalTime;
import java.time.format.DateTimeFormatter;
import java.time.format.FormatStyle;
import java.util.Locale;
//from  w ww. j  av  a 2s .  c  om
public class Main {
  public static void main(String... args) {
    DateTimeFormatter germanFormatter =
        DateTimeFormatter
                .ofLocalizedTime(FormatStyle.SHORT)
                .withLocale(Locale.GERMAN);

    LocalTime leetTime = LocalTime.parse("13:37", germanFormatter);
    System.out.println(leetTime);



  }
}

The code above generates the following result.
