import java.time.LocalTime;
import java.time.format.DateTimeFormatter;

public class FormatExample {


    public static void main (String... args) {
        LocalTime d = LocalTime.of(14, 30, 40);

        String s = d.format(DateTimeFormatter.ISO_LOCAL_TIME);
        System.out.printf("ISO_LOCAL_TIME: %s%n", s);

        s = d.format(DateTimeFormatter.ISO_TIME);
        System.out.printf("ISO_TIME: %s%n", s);
    }
}

Output

ISO_LOCAL_TIME: 14:30:40
ISO_TIME: 14:30:40




package com.logicbig.example.localtime;

import java.time.LocalTime;
import java.time.format.DateTimeFormatter;
import java.time.format.FormatStyle;

public class FormatExample2 {


    public static void main (String... args) {
        LocalTime d = LocalTime.of(14, 30, 40);

        String s = d.format(DateTimeFormatter.ofLocalizedTime(FormatStyle.MEDIUM));
        System.out.println("MEDIUM: " + s);

        s = d.format(DateTimeFormatter.ofLocalizedTime(FormatStyle.SHORT));
        System.out.println("SHORT: " + s);
    }

public class FormatExample3 {


    public static void main (String... args) {
        LocalTime d = LocalTime.of(14, 30, 40, 100000);

        String s = d.format(DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern("hh_mm_ss_n a"));
        System.out.printf("hh_mm_ss_n a => %s%n", s);

        s = d.format(DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern("K a"));
        System.out.printf("K a => %s%n", s);

        s = d.format(DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern("'milli-of-day=' A"));
        System.out.printf("'milli-of-day=' A => %s%n", s);
    }
}

Output

hh_mm_ss_n a => 02_30_40_100000 PM
