How can I get the count of milliseconds since midnight for the current?

Question

Note, I do NOT want millis from epoch. I want the number of milliseconds currently on the clock.

So for example, I have this bit of code.

Date date2 = ne         


        

Answer 1

In Java 8 you can simply do

ZonedDateTime.now().toInstant().toEpochMilli()

returns : the number of milliseconds since the epoch of 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z
