Below programs illustrate the isAfter() method of ChronoLocalDate in Java:

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 first date
        ChronoLocalDate dt1
            = LocalDate.parse("2018-11-27");

        // Parses the second date
        ChronoLocalDate dt2
            = LocalDate.parse("2017-11-27");

        // Check if the specified date
        // is after this date
        System.out.println(dt1.isAfter(dt2));
    }
}

Output:

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 first date
        ChronoLocalDate dt1
            = LocalDate.parse("2018-11-27");

        // Parses the second date
        ChronoLocalDate dt2
            = LocalDate.parse("2019-11-27");

        // Check if the specified date
        // is after this date
        System.out.println(dt1.isAfter(dt2));
    }
}

Output:

false
