my dao page is receiving date and time from two different field now i want know how to merge these both date and time in a single object so that i calculate time difference and total time. I have this code to merge but it is not working what am i doing wrong in this code please help.
Date d = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd").parse("2013-01-02");
Date t = new SimpleDateFormat("hh:mm:ss").parse("04:05:06");
LocalDate datePart = new LocalDate(d);
LocalTime timePart = new LocalTime(t);
LocalDateTime dateTime = datePart.toLocalDateTime(timePart);
System.out.println(dateTime);
You just need to use the correct methods, instead of calling constructors. Use parse
to create local date and local time objects, then pass the two objects to the of
method of LocalDateTime
:
LocalDate datePart = LocalDate.parse("2013-01-02");
LocalTime timePart = LocalTime.parse("04:05:06");
LocalDateTime dt = LocalDateTime.of(datePart, timePart);
EDIT
Apparently, you need to combine two Date
objects instead of 2 strings. I guess you can first convert the two dates to strings using SimpleDateFormat
. Then use the methods shown above.
String startingDate = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd").format(startDate);
String startingTime = new SimpleDateFormat("hh:mm:ss").format(startTime);
To combine date and time in java 8 you can use java.time.LocalDateTime
.
This also allows you to format with java.time.format.DateTimeFormatter
.
Example program:
public static void main(String[] args) {
LocalDate date = LocalDate.of(2013, 1, 2);
LocalTime time = LocalTime.of(4, 5, 6);
LocalDateTime localDateTime = LocalDateTime.of(date, time);
DateTimeFormatter format = DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern("MMM d yyyy hh:mm a");
System.out.println(localDateTime.format(format));
}
Simple yet effective would be:
LocalDateTime dateTime = LocalDateTime.of(datePart, timePart);
