import java.time.Clock; import java.time.Instant; import java.time.LocalDateTime; import java.time.ZoneId; public class ClockExample { public static void main(String[] args) { // Use the system clock Clock clock = Clock.systemDefaultZone(); // Get current instant Instant instant = clock.instant(); System.out.println("Current Instant: " + instant); // Convert instant to LocalDateTime LocalDateTime dateTime = LocalDateTime.now(clock); System.out.println("Current LocalDateTime: " + dateTime); // Work with different time zones ZoneId zoneId = ZoneId.of("America/New_York"); LocalDateTime dateTimeInZone = LocalDateTime.now(clock.withZone(zoneId)); System.out.println("Current LocalDateTime in New York: " + dateTimeInZone); } }
