ChronoLocalDateTime isAfter() method in Java with Examples
The isAfter() method of ChronoLocalDateTime interface in Java is used to check if the date, passed as the parameter, is after this ChronoLocalDateTime instance or not. It returns a boolean value showing the same.
Syntax:
default boolean isAfter(ChronoLocalDateTime otherDate)
Parameter: This method accepts a parameter otherDate which specifies the other date-time to be compared to this ChronoLocalDateTime. It should not be null.
Returns: The function returns boolean value showing if this date-time is after the specified date-time.
Below programs illustrate the ChronoLocalDateTime.isAfter() method:
Program 1:
// Program to illustrate the isAfter() method import java.util.*; import java.time.*; import java.time.chrono.*; public class GfG { public static void main(String[] args) { // Parses the date ChronoLocalDateTime dt1 = LocalDateTime.parse( "2018-11-03T12:45:30" ); // Prints the date System.out.println(dt1); // Parses the date ChronoLocalDateTime dt2 = LocalDateTime.parse( "2016-12-04T12:45:30" ); // Prints the date System.out.println(dt2); // Compares both dates System.out.println(dt1.isAfter(dt2)); } } |
Output:
2018-11-03T12:45:30 2016-12-04T12:45:30 true
Program 2:
// Program to illustrate the isAfter() method import java.util.*; import java.time.*; import java.time.chrono.*; public class GfG { public static void main(String[] args) { // Parses the date ChronoLocalDateTime dt1 = LocalDateTime.parse( "2018-11-03T12:45:30" ); // Prints the date System.out.println(dt1); // Parses the date ChronoLocalDateTime dt2 = LocalDateTime.parse( "2019-12-04T12:45:30" ); // Prints the date System.out.println(dt2); // Compares both dates System.out.println(dt1.isAfter(dt2)); } } |
Output:
2018-11-03T12:45:30 2019-12-04T12:45:30 false
