Is there a stopwatch in Java

Question

Is there a stopwatch in Java  On google I only find code of stopwatches which don t work - they always return 0 milliseconds   This code that I found doesn t work but I don t see why   public class StopWatch      private long startTime   0    private long stopTime   0    private boolean running   false      public void start         this startTime   System currentTimeMillis        this running   true          public void stop         this stopTime   System currentTimeMillis        this running   false            elaspsed time in milliseconds   public long getElapsedTime         long elapsed      if  running          elapsed    System currentTimeMillis   - startTime         else         elapsed    stopTime - startTime             return elapsed            elaspsed time in seconds   public long getElapsedTimeSecs         long elapsed      if  running          elapsed     System currentTimeMillis   - startTime    1000         else         elapsed     stopTime - startTime    1000             return elapsed

You ll find one in  http   commons apache org lang   It s called  org apache commons lang time StopWatch   But it roughly does the same as yours  If you re in for more precision  use  System nanoTime     See also this question here   Time measuring overhead in Java

There s no built in Stopwatch utility but as of JSR-310  Java 8 Time  you can do this simply   ZonedDateTime now   ZonedDateTime now       Do stuff long seconds   now until ZonedDateTime now    ChronoUnit SECONDS     I haven t benchmarked this properly but I would guess using Guava s Stopwatch is more effective

Use Guava s Stopwatch class      An object that measures elapsed time in nanoseconds  It is useful to   measure elapsed time using this class instead of direct calls to   System nanoTime   for a few reasons          An alternate time source can be substituted  for testing or performance reasons    As documented by nanoTime  the value returned has no absolute meaning  and can only be interpreted as relative to another timestamp   returned by nanoTime at a different time  Stopwatch is a more   effective abstraction because it exposes only these relative values    not the absolute ones       Stopwatch stopwatch   Stopwatch createStarted    doSomething    stopwatch stop       optional  long millis   stopwatch elapsed TimeUnit MILLISECONDS    log info  that took      stopwatch      formatted string like  12 3 ms
