A clock providing access to the current instant, date and time using a time-zone.

Instances of this class are used to find the current instant, which can be interpreted using the stored time-zone to find the current date and time. As such, a clock can be used instead of System.currentTimeMillis() and TimeZone.getDefault().

Use of a Clock is optional. All key date-time classes also have a now() factory method that uses the system clock in the default time zone. The primary purpose of this abstraction is to allow alternate clocks to be plugged in as and when required. Applications use an object to obtain the current time rather than a static method. This can simplify testing.

Best practice for applications is to pass a Clock into any method that requires the current instant. A dependency injection framework is one way to achieve this:

 public class MyBean {
   private Clock clock;  // dependency inject
   ...
   public void process(LocalDate eventDate) {
     if (eventDate.isBefore(LocalDate.now(clock)) {
       ...
     }
   }
 }
This approach allows an alternate clock, such as fixed or offset to be used during testing.

The system factory methods provide clocks based on the best available system clock This may use System.currentTimeMillis(), or a higher resolution clock if one is available.

Implementation Requirements: This abstract class must be implemented with care to ensure other classes operate correctly. All implementations that can be instantiated must be final, immutable and thread-safe.

The principal methods are defined to allow the throwing of an exception. In normal use, no exceptions will be thrown, however one possible implementation would be to obtain the time from a central time server across the network. Obviously, in this case the lookup could fail, and so the method is permitted to throw an exception.

The returned instants from Clock work on a time-scale that ignores leap seconds, as described in Instant. If the implementation wraps a source that provides leap second information, then a mechanism should be used to "smooth" the leap second. The Java Time-Scale mandates the use of UTC-SLS, however clock implementations may choose how accurate they are with the time-scale so long as they document how they work. Implementations are therefore not required to actually perform the UTC-SLS slew or to otherwise be aware of leap seconds.

Implementations should implement Serializable wherever possible and must document whether or not they do support serialization.

Implementation Note: The clock implementation provided here is based on the same underlying clock as System.currentTimeMillis(), but may have a precision finer than milliseconds if available. However, little to no guarantee is provided about the accuracy of the underlying clock. Applications requiring a more accurate clock must implement this abstract class themselves using a different external clock, such as an NTP server.

public abstract class Clock {
Obtains a clock that returns the current instant using the best available system clock, converting to date and time using the UTC time-zone.

This clock, rather than systemDefaultZone(), should be used when you need the current instant without the date or time.

This clock is based on the best available system clock. This may use System.currentTimeMillis(), or a higher resolution clock if one is available.

Conversion from instant to date or time uses the UTC time-zone.

The returned implementation is immutable, thread-safe and Serializable. It is equivalent to system(ZoneOffset.UTC).

Returns:a clock that uses the best available system clock in the UTC zone, not null

Obtains a clock that returns the current instant using the best available system clock, converting to date and time using the default time-zone.

This clock is based on the best available system clock. This may use System.currentTimeMillis(), or a higher resolution clock if one is available.

Using this method hard codes a dependency to the default time-zone into your application. It is recommended to avoid this and use a specific time-zone whenever possible. The UTC clock should be used when you need the current instant without the date or time.

The returned implementation is immutable, thread-safe and Serializable. It is equivalent to system(ZoneId.systemDefault()).

This clock will always have the nano-of-second field truncated to milliseconds. This ensures that the visible time ticks in whole milliseconds. The underlying clock is the best available system clock, equivalent to using system(ZoneId).

Implementations may use a caching strategy for performance reasons. As such, it is possible that the start of the millisecond observed via this clock will be later than that observed directly via the underlying clock.

Obtains a clock that returns the current instant ticking in whole seconds using the best available system clock.

This clock will always have the nano-of-second field set to zero. This ensures that the visible time ticks in whole seconds. The underlying clock is the best available system clock, equivalent to using system(ZoneId).

Implementations may use a caching strategy for performance reasons. As such, it is possible that the start of the second observed via this clock will be later than that observed directly via the underlying clock.

Obtains a clock that returns the current instant ticking in whole minutes using the best available system clock.

public static Clock tickMinutes(ZoneId zone) { return new TickClock(system(zone), NANOS_PER_MINUTE); }
Obtains a clock that returns instants from the specified clock truncated to the nearest occurrence of the specified duration.

This clock will only tick as per the specified duration. Thus, if the duration is half a second, the clock will return instants truncated to the half second.

The tick duration must be positive. If it has a part smaller than a whole millisecond, then the whole duration must divide into one second without leaving a remainder. All normal tick durations will match these criteria, including any multiple of hours, minutes, seconds and milliseconds, and sensible nanosecond durations, such as 20ns, 250,000ns and 500,000ns.

A duration of zero or one nanosecond would have no truncation effect. Passing one of these will return the underlying clock.

Implementations may use a caching strategy for performance reasons. As such, it is possible that the start of the requested duration observed via this clock will be later than that observed directly via the underlying clock.

The returned implementation is immutable, thread-safe and Serializable providing that the base clock is.

Params:
  • baseClock – the base clock to base the ticking clock on, not null
  • tickDuration – the duration of each visible tick, not negative, not null
Throws:
  • IllegalArgumentException – if the duration is negative, or has a part smaller than a whole millisecond such that the whole duration is not divisible into one second
  • ArithmeticException – if the duration is too large to be represented as nanos
Returns:a clock that ticks in whole units of the duration, not null

Obtains a clock that always returns the same instant.

This clock simply returns the specified instant. As such, it is not a clock in the conventional sense. The main use case for this is in testing, where the fixed clock ensures tests are not dependent on the current clock.

The returned implementation is immutable, thread-safe and Serializable.

Obtains a clock that returns instants from the specified clock with the specified duration added

This clock wraps another clock, returning instants that are later by the specified duration. If the duration is negative, the instants will be earlier than the current date and time. The main use case for this is to simulate running in the future or in the past.

A duration of zero would have no offsetting effect. Passing zero will return the underlying clock.

The returned implementation is immutable, thread-safe and Serializable providing that the base clock is.

Gets the current millisecond instant of the clock.

This returns the millisecond-based instant, measured from 1970-01-01T00:00Z (UTC). This is equivalent to the definition of System.currentTimeMillis().

Most applications should avoid this method and use Instant to represent an instant on the time-line rather than a raw millisecond value. This method is provided to allow the use of the clock in high performance use cases where the creation of an object would be unacceptable.

The default implementation currently calls instant.

Throws:

Returns:the current millisecond instant from this clock, measured from the Java epoch of 1970-01-01T00:00Z (UTC), not null

Clocks should override this method to compare equals based on their state and to meet the contract of Object.equals. If not overridden, the behavior is defined by Object.equals
