Java
// Java program to demonstrate of() method import java.util.*; import java.io.*; import java.time.*; import java.time.chrono.*; import java.time.temporal.*; public class GFG { public static void main(String[] argv) { try { // Creating and initializing // JapaneseDate Object // By using of() method JapaneseDate hidate = JapaneseDate.of( 2008 , 04 , 24 ); // Display the result System.out.println( "JapaneseDate: " + hidate); } catch (DateTimeException e) { System.out.println( "passed parameter can" + " not form a date" ); System.out.println( "Exception thrown: " + e); } } } |
JapaneseDate: Japanese Heisei 20-04-24
Example 2:
Java
