Below examples illustrate the Duration.getUnits() method:

Example 1:




// Java code to illustrate getUnits() method
  
import java.time.Duration;
import java.time.temporal.*;
import java.util.*;
  
public class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
  
        // Get the text
        String time = "P2DT3H4M";
  
        // Duration using parse() method
        Duration duration
            = Duration.parse(time);
  
        // Duration using getUnits() method
        List<TemporalUnit>
            listOfUnits = duration.getUnits();
  
        System.out.println("List of Units: "
                           + listOfUnits);
    }

Output:

List of Units: [Seconds, Nanos]

public class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
  
        // Get the text
        String time = "P1DT4M";
  
        // Duration using parse() method
        Duration duration
            = Duration.parse(time);
  
        // Duration using getUnits() method
        List<TemporalUnit>
            listOfUnits = duration.getUnits();
