java.util.date to String using DateTimeFormatter

Question

How can I convert a java.util.Date to String using

 DateTimeFormatter dateTimeFormatter = DateTimeFormat.forPattern(\"yyyy-MM-dd\'T\'H         


        

Answer 1

since I asume you are using joda API: ergo, DateTimeFormatter is comming from org.joda.time.format.DateTimeFormatter:

 String dateTime = "02-13-2017 18:20:30";
// Format for input
DateTimeFormatter dtf = DateTimeFormat.forPattern("MM-dd-yyyy HH:mm:ss");
// Parsing the date
DateTime jodatime = dtf.parseDateTime(dateTime);

System.out.println(jodatime );
