package example.javatpoint.com.timepicker;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;

import android.widget.TimePicker;
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
    TextView textview1;
    TimePicker timepicker;
    Button changetime;
    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
        textview1=(TextView)findViewById(R.id.textView1);
        timepicker=(TimePicker)findViewById(R.id.timePicker);

        textview1.setText(getCurrentTime());
        changetime.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener(){
            @Override
            public void onClick(View view) {
                textview1.setText(getCurrentTime());
            }
