The dateNow() method of java.time.chrono.HijrahChronology class is used get the current local date according to Hijrah calendar system from the specified clock object.
Syntax:
public HijrahDate dateNow(Clock clock)
Parameter: This method takes the object of clock as a parameter.
Return Value: This method returns the local date according to Hijrah calendar system from the specified clock object.
Below are the examples to illustrate the dateNow() method:
Example 1:
// Java program to demonstrate // dateNow() method import java.util.*; import java.io.*; import java.time.*; import java.time.chrono.*; public class GFG { public static void main(String[] argv) { try { // creating and initializing HijrahDate Object HijrahDate hidate = HijrahDate.now(); // getting HijrahChronology used in HijrahDate HijrahChronology crono = hidate.getChronology(); // creating and initializing clock object Clock clock = Clock.systemUTC(); // getting HijrahDate for the // given clock object // by using dateNow() method HijrahDate date = crono.dateNow(clock); // display the result System.out.println( "HijrahDate is: " + date); } catch (DateTimeException e) { System.out.println( "passed parameter can " + "not form a date" ); System.out.println( "Exception thrown: " + e); } } } |
Output:
HijrahDate is: Hijrah-umalqura AH 1441-05-27
Example 2:
// Java program to demonstrate // dateNow() method import java.util.*; import java.io.*; import java.time.*; import java.time.chrono.*; public class GFG { public static void main(String[] argv) { try { // creating and initializing HijrahDate Object HijrahDate hidate = HijrahDate.now(); // getting HijrahChronology used in HijrahDate HijrahChronology crono = hidate.getChronology(); // creating and initializing clock object Clock clock = Clock.systemUTC(); // setting clock clock = Clock.tick(clock, Duration.ofDays( 100 )); // getting HijrahDate for the // given clock object // by using dateNow() method HijrahDate date = crono.dateNow(clock); // display the result System.out.println( "HijrahDate is: " + date); } catch (DateTimeException e) { System.out.println( "passed parameter can " + "not form a date" ); System.out.println( "Exception thrown: " + e); } } } |
Output:
HijrahDate is: Hijrah-umalqura AH 1441-03-03
