Parse clock time in java 8

Question

I wonder is it possible to parse clock time hour:minute:second in Java 8?

e.g.

final DateTimeFormatter formatter = DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern(\"HH:m         


        

Answer 1

LocalTime.parse

Since you only have a time use the LocalTime class. No need to define a formatting pattern in your case.

String str = "12:22:10";
LocalTime time = LocalTime.parse(str);
