Instant Parse Method in Java

The string representation of an Instant can be obtained using the toString() method in the Instant class in Java. This method requires no parameters and it returns the string representation of the Instant.

A program that demonstrates this is given as follows −

Example

 Live Demo

import java.time.*;
public class Demo {
   public static void main(String[] args) {
      Instant i = Instant.now();
      System.out.println("The current Instant is: " + i.toString());
   }
}

Output

The current Instant is: 2019-02-13T09:01:52.484Z

Now let us understand the above program.

The string representation of the current Instant is obtained using the toString() method. Then this is displayed. A code snippet that demonstrates this is as follows −

Instant i = Instant.now();
System.out.println("The current Instant is: " + i.toString());
