Java 8 Date parsing and formatting example.
Java 8 date and time API makes date formatting and parsing very simple. This page gives many examples on parsing
and formatting date.
DateParsingFormatEx |
package com.java2novice.datetime;
import java.time.LocalDate;
import java.time.LocalDateTime;
import java.time.Month;
import java.time.format.DateTimeFormatter;
import java.util.Locale;
public class DateParsingFormatEx {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// create a date time object (2016-01-01 10:30)
LocalDateTime dtObj = LocalDateTime.of(2016, Month.JANUARY, 1, 10, 35);
System.out.println("date time obj: "+dtObj);
// format ISO date time (2016-01-01T10:35:00)
String isoObj = dtObj.format(DateTimeFormatter.ISO_DATE_TIME);
System.out.println("date time obj in ISO format: "+isoObj);
// format basic ISO date format (20160101)
String basicIsoObj = dtObj.format(DateTimeFormatter.BASIC_ISO_DATE);
System.out.println("date time obj in basic ISO format: "+basicIsoObj);
// format as ISO week date (2015-W53-5)
String isoWeekObj = dtObj.format(DateTimeFormatter.ISO_WEEK_DATE);
System.out.println("date time obj in ISO week format: "+isoWeekObj);
// french date formatting (1. janvier 2016)
String frenchDate = dtObj.format(DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern("d. MMMM yyyy", new Locale("fr")));
System.out.println("date time obj in french date format: "+frenchDate);
// user custom pattern (01/01/16)
String custDtObj = dtObj.format(DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern("dd/MM/yy"));
System.out.println("date time obj in custom format: "+custDtObj);
// parsing string to date object
LocalDate isoDateObj = LocalDate.parse("2016-02-22");
System.out.println("iso date: "+isoDateObj);
// custom date string to date object
LocalDate custPatternObj = LocalDate.parse("02-2016-22", DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern("MM-yyyy-dd"));
System.out.println("custom date format: "+custPatternObj);
}

What is wrapper class?
Everything in java is an object, except primitives. Primitives are
int, short, long, boolean, etc. Since they are not objects, they cannot
return as objects, and collection of objects. To support this, java provides
wrapper classes to move primitives to objects. Some of the wrapper classes
are Integer, Long, Boolean, etc.
If you don’t make mistakes, you’re not working on hard enough problems. And that’s a big mistake.
