Methods:

public LocalTime minus(TemporalAmount amountToSubtract)

This method returns a new instance of LocalTime subtracted by provided TemporalAmount.

There are two implementations of TemporalAmount provided in JSE: Duration and Period.

Period is not supported by LocalTime, using it will throw UnsupportedTemporalTypeException.


public LocalTime minus(long amountToSubtract,

                       TemporalUnit unit)

This method returns a new instance of LocalTime , subtracted by the provided amount per provided TemporalUnit.



Examples


package com.logicbig.example.localtime;

import java.time.Duration;
import java.time.LocalTime;
import java.time.Period;

public class MinusExample {

    public static void main (String... args) {
        LocalTime d1 = LocalTime.of(12, 30, 50);

        LocalTime d2 = d1.minus(Duration.ofHours(5));
        System.out.println(d2);

        d2 = d1.minus(Duration.ofHours(-5));
        System.out.println(d2);

        d2 = d1.minus(Duration.ofDays(2));
        System.out.println(d2);

    }

}

Output

07:30:50
17:30:50
12:30:50




package com.logicbig.example.localtime;

import java.time.LocalTime;
import java.time.temporal.ChronoUnit;

public class MinusExample2 {

    public static void main (String... args) {
        LocalTime d1 = LocalTime.of(12, 30, 50);

        LocalTime d2 = d1.minus(11, ChronoUnit.HOURS);
        System.out.println(d2);

        d2 = d1.minus(-11, ChronoUnit.HOURS);
        System.out.println(d2);
    }
}

Output

01:30:50
23:30:50
