The
plusYears()method of
LocalDateclass in Java is used to add the number of specified years in this LocalDate and return a copy of LocalDate. This method adds the years field in the following steps:
For example, 2016-02-29 (leap year) plus one year gives date 2017-02-29 but this is invalid result, so the last valid day of the month, 2017-02-28, is returned.This instance is immutable and unaffected by this method call.
Syntax:public LocalDate plusYears(long yearsToAdd)Parameters:
This method accepts a single parameter
yearsToAddwhich represents the years to add, may be negative.
Return value:This method returns a
LocalDatebased on this date with the years added, not null.
Exception:This method throws
DateTimeExceptionif the result exceeds the supported date range. Below programs illustrate the plusYears() method:
Program 1: Java
// Java program to demonstrate
// LocalDate.plusYears() method
import java.time.*;
public class GFG {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
// create a LocalDate object
LocalDate date
= LocalDate.parse("2018-11-13");
// print instance
System.out.println("LocalDate before"
+ " adding years: " + date);
// add 3 years
LocalDate returnvalue
= date.plusYears(3);
// print result
System.out.println("LocalDate after "
+ " adding years: " + returnvalue);
}
}
Output:
LocalDate before adding years: 2018-11-13 LocalDate after adding years: 2021-11-13Program 2: Java
// Java program to demonstrate
// LocalDate.plusYears() method
import java.time.*;
public class GFG {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
// create a LocalDate object
LocalDate date
= LocalDate.parse("2016-02-29");
// print instance
System.out.println("LocalDate before"
+ " adding years: " + date);
// add 2 years
LocalDate returnvalue
= date.plusYears(2);
// print result
System.out.println("LocalDate after "
+ " adding years: " + returnvalue);
}
}
Output:
LocalDate before adding years: 2016-02-29 LocalDate after adding years: 2018-02-28References: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/10/docs/api/java/time/LocalDate.html#plusYears(long)
