Class Time

java.lang.Object

java.util.Date

java.sql.Time

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Cloneable, Comparable<Date>

public class Time
extends Date

A thin wrapper around the java.util.Date class that allows the JDBC API to identify this as an SQL TIME value. The Time class adds formatting and parsing operations to support the JDBC escape syntax for time values.

The date components should be set to the "zero epoch" value of January 1, 1970 and should not be accessed.

Since:

1.1

Constructor Details

Time

@Deprecated(since="1.2")
public Time(int hour,
 int minute,
 int second)

Deprecated.

Use the constructor that takes a milliseconds value in place of this constructor

Constructs a Time object initialized with the given values for the hour, minute, and second. The driver sets the date components to January 1, 1970. Any method that attempts to access the date components of a Time object will throw a java.lang.IllegalArgumentException.

The result is undefined if a given argument is out of bounds.

Parameters:

hour - 0 to 23

minute - 0 to 59

second - 0 to 59

Time

public Time(long time)

Constructs a Time object using a milliseconds time value.

Parameters:

time - milliseconds since January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 GMT; a negative number is milliseconds before January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 GMT

Method Details

setTime

public void setTime(long time)

Sets a Time object using a milliseconds time value.

Overrides:

setTime in class Date

Parameters:

time - milliseconds since January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 GMT; a negative number is milliseconds before January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 GMT

valueOf

public static Time valueOf(String s)

Converts a string in JDBC time escape format to a Time value.

Parameters:

s - time in format "hh:mm:ss"

Returns:

a corresponding Time object

toString

public String toString()

Formats a time in JDBC time escape format.

Overrides:

toString in class Date

Returns:

a String in hh:mm:ss format

See Also:

• Date.toLocaleString()
• Date.toGMTString()

getYear

@Deprecated(since="1.2")
public int getYear()

Deprecated.

This method is deprecated and should not be used because SQL TIME values do not have a year component.

Overrides:

getYear in class Date

Returns:

the year represented by this date, minus 1900.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this method is invoked

See Also:

• setYear(int)

getMonth

@Deprecated(since="1.2")
public int getMonth()

Deprecated.

This method is deprecated and should not be used because SQL TIME values do not have a month component.

Overrides:

getMonth in class Date

Returns:

the month represented by this date.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this method is invoked

See Also:

• setMonth(int)

getDay

@Deprecated(since="1.2")
public int getDay()

Deprecated.

This method is deprecated and should not be used because SQL TIME values do not have a day component.

Overrides:

getDay in class Date

Returns:

the day of the week represented by this date.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this method is invoked

See Also:

• Calendar

getDate

@Deprecated(since="1.2")
public int getDate()

Deprecated.

This method is deprecated and should not be used because SQL TIME values do not have a date component.

Overrides:

getDate in class Date

Returns:

the day of the month represented by this date.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this method is invoked

See Also:

• setDate(int)

setYear

@Deprecated(since="1.2")
public void setYear(int i)

Deprecated.

This method is deprecated and should not be used because SQL TIME values do not have a year component.

Overrides:

setYear in class Date

Parameters:

i - the year value.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this method is invoked

See Also:

• getYear()

setMonth

@Deprecated(since="1.2")
public void setMonth(int i)

Deprecated.

This method is deprecated and should not be used because SQL TIME values do not have a month component.

Overrides:

setMonth in class Date

Parameters:

i - the month value between 0-11.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this method is invoked

See Also:

• getMonth()

setDate

@Deprecated(since="1.2")
public void setDate(int i)

Deprecated.

This method is deprecated and should not be used because SQL TIME values do not have a date component.

Overrides:

setDate in class Date

Parameters:

i - the day of the month value between 1-31.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this method is invoked

See Also:

• getDate()

valueOf

public static Time valueOf(LocalTime time)

Obtains an instance of Time from a LocalTime object with the same hour, minute and second time value as the given LocalTime. The nanosecond field from LocalTime is not part of the newly created Time object.

Parameters:

time - a LocalTime to convert

Returns:

a Time object

Throws:

NullPointerException - if time is null

Since:

1.8

toLocalTime

public LocalTime toLocalTime()

Converts this Time object to a LocalTime.

The conversion creates a LocalTime that represents the same hour, minute, and second time value as this Time. The nanosecond LocalTime field will be set to zero.

Returns:

a LocalTime object representing the same time value

Since:

1.8

toInstant

public Instant toInstant()

This method always throws an UnsupportedOperationException and should not be used because SQL Time values do not have a date component.

Overrides:

toInstant in class Date

Returns:

an instant representing the same point on the time-line as this Date object

Throws:

UnsupportedOperationException - if this method is invoked
