MinguoChronology dateNow(ZoneId) method in Java with Example

Last Updated : 24 Apr, 2020

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

Syntax:

public MinguoDate dateNow(ZoneId zone)

Parameter: This method takes the object of zone id as a parameter.

Return Value: This method returns the local date according to Minguo calendar system from the specified clock object.

Below are the examples to illustrate the dateNow() method:

Example 1:

// 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 ZoneId object 
            ZoneId id = ZoneId.systemDefault(); 
  
            // getting MinguoDate for the 
            // given zoneid object 
            // by using dateNow() method 
            MinguoDate date = crono.dateNow(id); 
  
            // 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:

// 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 ZoneId object 
            ZoneId id = ZoneId.of("Europe/Paris"); 
  
            // getting MinguoDate for the 
            // given zoneid object 
            // by using dateNow() method 
            MinguoDate date = crono.dateNow(id); 
  
            // 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
