ZonedDateTime isSupported() method in Java with Examples

In ZonedDateTime class, there are two types of isSupported() method depending upon the parameters passed to it.

isSupported(TemporalField field)

isSupported() method of a ZonedDateTime class used to check if the specified field is supported by ZonedDateTime class or not means using this method we can check if this ZonedDateTime can be queried for the specified field. The supported fields of ChronoField are:

• NANO_OF_SECOND
• MICRO_OF_SECOND
• MILLI_OF_SECOND
• INSTANT_SECONDS
• SECOND_OF_MINUTE
• NANO_OF_DAY
• MICRO_OF_DAY
• MILLI_OF_DAY
• SECOND_OF_DAY
• MINUTE_OF_HOUR
• MINUTE_OF_DAY
• HOUR_OF_AMPM
• CLOCK_HOUR_OF_AMPM
• HOUR_OF_DAY
• CLOCK_HOUR_OF_DAY
• AMPM_OF_DAY
• DAY_OF_WEEK
• ALIGNED_DAY_OF_WEEK_IN_MONTH
• ALIGNED_DAY_OF_WEEK_IN_YEAR
• DAY_OF_MONTH
• DAY_OF_YEAR
• EPOCH_DAY
• ALIGNED_WEEK_OF_MONTH
• ALIGNED_WEEK_OF_YEAR
• MONTH_OF_YEAR
• PROLEPTIC_MONTH
• YEAR_OF_ERA
• YEAR
• ERA
• INSTANT_SECONDS
• OFFSET_SECONDS

All other ChronoField instances will return false. Syntax:

public boolean isSupported(TemporalField field)

Parameters: This method accepts one single parameter field which is the field to check. Return value: This method returns boolean value true if the field is supported on this date-time, false if not. Below programs illustrate the isSupported() method: Program 1: Java

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

import java.time.*;
import java.time.temporal.ChronoField;

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

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

        // check ALIGNED_WEEK_OF_YEAR
        // is supported in ZonedDateTime
        boolean value
            = zdt.isSupported(
                ChronoField.ALIGNED_WEEK_OF_YEAR);

        // print result
        System.out.println("ALIGNED_WEEK_OF_YEAR "
                           + "Field is supported: "
                           + value);
    }
}

isSupported(TemporalUnit unit)

isSupported() method of a ZonedDateTime class used to Check if the specified unit is supported by ZonedDateTime class or not means using this method we can check if this ZonedDateTime can be queried for the specified unit. The supported fields of ChronoUnit are:

• NANOS
• MICROS
• MILLIS
• SECONDS
• MINUTES
• HOURS
• HALF_DAYS
• DAYS
• WEEKS
• MONTHS
• YEARS
• DECADES
• CENTURIES
• MILLENNIA
• ERAS

All other ChronoUnit instances will return false. Syntax:

public boolean isSupported(TemporalUnit unit)

Parameters: This method accepts one single parameter unit which is the unit to check. Return value: This method returns boolean value true if the field is supported on this date-time, false if not. Below programs illustrate the isSupported() method: Program 1: Java

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

import java.time.*;
import java.time.temporal.ChronoUnit;

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

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

        // check MILLENNIA ChronoUnit supported
        // in ZonedDateTime
        boolean value
            = lt.isSupported(ChronoUnit.MILLENNIA);

        // print result
        System.out.println("ChronoUnit MILLENNIA "
                           + "is  supported: "
                           + value);
    }
}
