MinguoChronology dateNow(Clock) method in Java with Example

The dateNow() method of java.time.chrono.MinguoChronology class is used get the current Minguo date according to Minguo calendar system from the specified clock object. Syntax:

public MinguoDate dateNow(Clock clock)

Parameter: This method takes the object of clock as a parameter which is used get the current Minguo date according to Minguo calendar system from the specified clock object. Return Value: This method returns the Minguo date according to Minguo calendar system from the specified clock object. Below are the examples to illustrate the dateNow() method: Example 1:

Java

// Java program to demonstrate
// dateNow() method

import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
import java.time.*;
import java.time.chrono.*;

public class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] argv)
    {
        try {
            // creating and initializing
            // MinguoDate Object
            MinguoDate hidate
                = MinguoDate.now();

            // getting MinguoChronology
            // used in MinguoDate
            MinguoChronology crono
                = hidate.getChronology();

            // creating and initializing
            // clock object
            Clock clock = Clock.systemUTC();

            // getting MinguoDate for the
            // given clock object
            // by using dateNow() method
            MinguoDate date
                = crono.dateNow(clock);

            // display the result
            System.out.println(
                "MinguoDate is: "
                + date);
        }
        catch (DateTimeException e) {
            System.out.println(
                "passed parameter can "
                + "not form a date");
            System.out.println(
                "Exception thrown: " + e);
        }
    }
}

Output:

MinguoDate is: Minguo ROC 109-04-15

Example 2:

            MinguoDate hidate
                = MinguoDate.now();

            // getting MinguoChronology
            // used in MinguoDate
            MinguoChronology crono
                = hidate.getChronology();

            // creating and initializing
            // clock object
            Clock clock = Clock.systemUTC();

            // setting clock
            clock = Clock.tick(
                clock,
                Duration.ofDays(100));

            // getting MinguoDate for the
            // given clock object
            // by using dateNow() method
            MinguoDate date
                = crono.dateNow(clock);

            // display the result
            System.out.println(
                "MinguoDate is: "
                + date);
        }
        catch (DateTimeException e) {
            System.out.println(
                "passed parameter can "
                + "not form a date");
            System.out.println(
                "Exception thrown: " + e);
        }
    }
}

Output:

MinguoDate is: Minguo ROC 109-02-08
