parse(CharSequence text)
parse() method of a LocalTime class used to get an instance of LocalTime from a string such as ’10:15:45′ passed as parameter.The string must have a valid date-time and is parsed using DateTimeFormatter.ISO_LOCAL_TIME.
Syntax:
public static LocalTime parse(CharSequence text)
Parameters: This method accepts only one parameter text which is the text to parse in LocalTime. It should not be null.
Return value: This method returns LocalTime which is the parsed local date-time.
Exception: This method throws DateTimeParseException if the text cannot be parsed.
Below programs illustrate the parse() method:
Program 1:
Java
import java.time.*;
public class GFG {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
LocalTime lt
= LocalTime.parse(" 10 : 15 : 45 ");
System.out.println("LocalTime : "
+ lt);
