Can localTime be added by 1 second continually in java.sql.Time?

In java.time.LocalTime, there is addSeconds() method. Can it be used for adding 1 second continually?

LocalTime localTime = Time.valueOf("00:00:00").toLocalTime();
localTime = localTime.plusSeconds(1L);
String output = localTime.toString();
whiteTime = Time.valueOf(output);

I added this part of error message from Intellij.

00:00:58

00:00:59

It looks it makes an error when it reached 00:00:59. How to make it 00:01:00 for continous counting for seconds?

Solution

  • The problem is that you are using java.sql.Time.valueOf(String) and depend on LocalTime.toString() format which may not print seconds because:

    The format used will be the shortest that outputs the full value of the time where the omitted parts are implied to be zero.

    You should use Time.valueOf(LocalTime):

    LocalTime localTime = Time.valueOf("00:00:59").toLocalTime();
localTime = localTime.plusSeconds(1);
System.out.println(Time.valueOf(localTime)); // 00:01:00
