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

You can use the joda time formatter class:

import org.joda.time.DateTime;
import org.joda.time.DateTimeZone;
import org.joda.time.format.DateTimeFormat;
import org.joda.time.format.DateTimeFormatter;
# conflict with import java.time.format.DateTimeFormatter;

final DateTimeFormatter formatter = DateTimeFormat.forPattern("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss")
            .withZone(DateTimeZone.UTC);

    System.out.println(DateTime.now().toString(formatter));
