In this article, I show you how to Java code to convert LocalDateTime to long (in Milliseconds) using Java 8 date-time API.
As we know, LocalDateTime doesn't contain information about the time zone. In other words, we can't get milliseconds directly from LocalDateTime instance. First, we created an instance of the current date. After that, we used the toEpochMilli() method to convert the ZonedDateTime into milliseconds.
Get Milliseconds from LocalDateTime in Java 8
First, we created an instance of the current date. After that, we used the toEpochMilli() method to convert the ZonedDateTime into milliseconds.

import java.time.LocalDateTime;

import java.time.ZonedDateTime;

public class LocalDateTimeExample {
public static void main(String[] args) {
LocalDateTime localDateTime = LocalDateTime.now();
ZonedDateTime zdt = ZonedDateTime.of(localDateTime, ZoneId.systemDefault());
long date = zdt.toInstant().toEpochMilli();
System.out.println(date);
}
}
Output:
