How to Solve Error: Unsupported field: HourOfDay

Error: Unsupported field: HourOfDay

code show as below

LocalDate now = LocalDate.now();
String year = now.format(DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern("yyyy"));
String hour = now.format(DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern("MM-dd-HH"));

The error is as follows

Exception in thread "main" java.time.temporal.UnsupportedTemporalTypeException: Unsupported field: HourOfDay

I also traced it to the jdk source code to view it.

private int get0(TemporalField field) {
        switch ((ChronoField) field) {
            case DAY_OF_WEEK: return getDayOfWeek().getValue();
            case ALIGNED_DAY_OF_WEEK_IN_MONTH: return ((day - 1) % 7) + 1;
            case ALIGNED_DAY_OF_WEEK_IN_YEAR: return ((getDayOfYear() - 1) % 7) + 1;
            case DAY_OF_MONTH: return day;
            case DAY_OF_YEAR: return getDayOfYear();
            case EPOCH_DAY: throw new UnsupportedTemporalTypeException("Invalid field 'EpochDay' for get() method, use getLong() instead");
            case ALIGNED_WEEK_OF_MONTH: return ((day - 1) / 7) + 1;
            case ALIGNED_WEEK_OF_YEAR: return ((getDayOfYear() - 1) / 7) + 1;
            case MONTH_OF_YEAR: return month;
            case PROLEPTIC_MONTH: throw new UnsupportedTemporalTypeException("Invalid field 'ProlepticMonth' for get() method, use getLong() instead");
            case YEAR_OF_ERA: return (year >= 1 ? year : 1 - year);
            case YEAR: return year;
            case ERA: return (year >= 1 ? 1 : 0);
        }
        throw new UnsupportedTemporalTypeException("Unsupported field: " + field);
    }

Finally, the code that throws the exception is here.

I explained in now.format(DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern("MM-dd-HH"));the HHis not caseamong.

Why caseis there only year, month and day, and no hour, minute and second?

emmmmm.

The answer is: I used the wrong class

LocalDateTimeThis class should be used . This class contains hours, minutes and seconds.

LocalDateTime now = LocalDateTime.now();
String year = now.format(DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern("yyyy"));
String hour = now.format(DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern("MM-dd-HH"));
