Note, I do NOT want millis from epoch. I want the number of milliseconds currently on the clock.
So for example, I have this bit of code.
Date date2 = new Date();
Long time2 = (long) (((((date2.getHours() * 60) + date2.getMinutes())* 60 ) + date2.getSeconds()) * 1000);
Is there a way to get milliseconds with date? Is there another way to do this?
Note: System.currentTimeMillis() gives me millis from epoch which is not what I'm looking for.
Java 8:
LocalDateTime toDate = LocalDateTime.now();
LocalDateTime fromDate = LocalDateTime.of(toDate.getYear(), toDate.getMonth(),
toDate.getDayOfMonth(), 0, 0, 0);
long millis = ChronoUnit.MILLIS.between(fromDate, toDate);
You can use java.util.Calendar class to get time in milliseconds. Example:
Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
int milliSec = cal.get(Calendar.MILLISECOND);
// print milliSec
java.util.Date date = cal.getTime();
System.out.println("Output: " + new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy/MM/dd-HH:mm:ss:SSS").format(date));
