Java 8 LocalTime class

The java.time.LocalTime class is an immutable class that represents a time, often viewed as hour-minute-second. Time is represented to nanosecond precision. For example, the value “13:45.30.123456789” can be stored in a LocalTime. This class does not store or represent a date or time-zone. Instead, it is a description of the local time as seen on a wall clock. It cannot represent an instant on the time-line without additional information such as an offset or time-zone.
