  • DateTimeException: if the result exceeds the maximum or minimum instant.
  • ArithmeticException: if numeric overflow occurs.

Below programs illustrate the plusMillis() method:

Program 1:




// Java program to demonstrate
// Instant.plusMillis() method
  
import java.time.*;
  
public class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
  
        // create a Instant object
        Instant instant
            = Instant.parse("2018-12-30T19:34:50.63Z");
  
        // addition of 8800000 MILLI_OF_SECOND
        // means 8800 seconds to this instant
        Instant returnedValue
            = instant.plusMillis(8800000);
  
        // print result
        System.out.println("Returned Instant: "
                           + returnedValue);
    }
}


Program 2:




// Java program to demonstrate
// Instant.plusMillis() method
  
import java.time.*;
  
public class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
  
        // create a Instant object
        Instant instant = Instant.now();
  
        // current Instant
        System.out.println("Current instant: "
                           + instant);
  
        // addition of 420000 MILLI_OF_SECOND
        // means 420 seconds to this instant
        Instant returnedValue
            = instant.plusMillis(420000);
  
        // print result
        System.out.println("Returned Instant: "
                           + returnedValue);
    }
