ZoneDateTimeDemo.java

import java.time.ZonedDateTime;

public class ZoneDateTimeDemo
{

    public static void main(String[] args)
    {

        ZonedDateTime zonedDateTime1 = ZonedDateTime
                .parse("2016-02-03T12:30:30+01:00");
     
        System.out.println(zonedDateTime1);

        ZonedDateTime zonedDateTime2 = ZonedDateTime
                .parse("2017-02-03T12:30:30+01:00");
     
        System.out.println(zonedDateTime2);

        /*
         * Returns:true if this is equal to the other date-time
         */
        System.out.println(zonedDateTime1.equals(zonedDateTime2));

        /*
         * Returns:true if this date-time is after the specified
         * date-time
         */
        System.out.println(zonedDateTime1.isAfter(zonedDateTime2));

        /*
         * Returns:true if this date-time is before the specified
         * date-time
         */

        System.out.println(zonedDateTime1.isBefore(zonedDateTime2));
    }

}

Output

2016-02-03T12:30:30+01:00
2017-02-03T12:30:30+01:00
