ZonedDateTime minusHours() method in Java with Examples

Last Updated : 10 Dec, 2018

minusHours()

method of a

ZonedDateTime

class used to subtract the number of hours from this ZonedDateTime and return a copy of ZonedDateTime after subtraction.This operates on the instant time-line, such that subtracting one hour will always be a duration of one hour earlier. subtracting one hour may cause the local date-time to change by an amount other than one hour. For example, consider a time-zone, such as 'Europe/Paris', where the Autumn DST cutover means that the local times 02:00 to 02:59 occur twice changing from offset +02:00 in summer to +01:00 in winter.

Subtracting one hour from 03:30+01:00 will result in 02:30+01:00 (both in winter time)
Subtracting one hour from 02:30+01:00 will result in 02:30+02:00 (moving from winter to summer time)
Subtracting one hour from 02:30+02:00 will result in 01:30+02:00 (both in summer time)
Subtracting three hours from 03:30+01:00 will result in 01:30+02:00 (moving from winter to summer time)

This instance is immutable and unaffected by this method call.

Syntax:

public ZonedDateTime minusHours(long hours)

Parameters:

This method accepts a single parameter

hours

which represents the hours to subtract, It can be negative.

Return value:

This method returns a

ZonedDateTime

based on this date-time with the hours subtracted.

Exception:

This method throws

DateTimeException

if the result exceeds the supported date range. Below programs illustrate the minusHours() method:

Program 1: Java


 // Java program to demonstrate
// ZonedDateTime.minusHours() method

import java.time.*;

public class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {

        // create a ZonedDateTime object
        ZonedDateTime zoneddatetime
            = ZonedDateTime.parse(
                "2018-12-06T19:21:12.123+05:30[Asia/Calcutta]");

        // print instance
        System.out.println("ZonedDateTime before"
                           + " subtracting hours: "
                           + zoneddatetime);

        // subtract 3 hours
        ZonedDateTime returnvalue
            = zoneddatetime.minusHours(3);

        // print result
        System.out.println("ZonedDateTime after "
                           + " subtracting 3 hours: "
                           + returnvalue);
    }
}

Output:

ZonedDateTime before subtracting hours: 2018-12-06T19:21:12.123+05:30[Asia/Calcutta] ZonedDateTime after subtracting 3 hours: 2018-12-06T16:21:12.123+05:30[Asia/Calcutta]

Program 2: Java


 // Java program to demonstrate
// ZonedDateTime.minusHours() method

import java.time.*;

public class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {

        // create a ZonedDateTime object
        ZonedDateTime zoneddatetime
            = ZonedDateTime.parse(
                "2018-10-25T23:12:31.123+02:00[Europe/Paris]");

        // print instance
        System.out.println("ZonedDateTime before"
                           + " subtracting hours: "
                           + zoneddatetime);

        // subtract 20 hours
        ZonedDateTime returnvalue
            = zoneddatetime.minusHours(20);

        // print result
        System.out.println("ZonedDateTime after "
                           + " subtracting 20 hours: "
                           + returnvalue);
    }
}

Output:

ZonedDateTime before subtracting hours: 2018-10-25T23:12:31.123+02:00[Europe/Paris] ZonedDateTime after subtracting 20 hours: 2018-10-25T03:12:31.123+02:00[Europe/Paris]
