How to specify the format string to convert the date alone from string. In my case, only the date part is relevant
Constructing it as DateTime fails:
String dateString = "2009-04-17"; DateTimeFormatter formatter = DateTimeFormat.forPattern("yyyy-MM-dd"); DateTime dateTime = formatter.parseDateTime(dateString); with error java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Invalid format: "2011-04-17" is too short
Probably because I should use LocalDate instead. But, I do not see any formatter for LocalDate . What is the best way to convert String dateString = "2009-04-17"; into LocalDate (or something else if that is not the right representation)
thanks...

Parsing String to LocalDateparse() method takes two arguments. The first argument is the string representing the date. And the second optional argument is an instance of DateTimeFormatter specifying any custom pattern. //Default pattern is yyyy-MM-dd LocalDate today = LocalDate.
LocalDate is an immutable datetime class representing a date without a time zone. LocalDate implements the ReadablePartial interface. To do this, the interface methods focus on the key fields - Year, MonthOfYear and DayOfMonth. However, all date fields may in fact be queried.
So the short answer to your question is: YES (deprecated).
time (JSR-310) which is a core part of the JDK which replaces joda library project.
You're probably looking for LocalDate(Object). It's a bit confusing since it takes a generic Object, but the docs indicate that it will use a ConverterManager that knows how to handle a String if you pass a String to the constructor, e.g.
LocalDate myDate = new LocalDate("2010-04-28"); Use the parse(String) method.
LocalDate date = LocalDate.parse("2009-04-17"); If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
