jdk.time.format.DateTimeFormatter

Formatter for printing and parsing date-time objects.

This class provides the main application entry point for printing and parsing and provides common implementations of DateTimeFormatter:

Using predefined constants, such as ISO_LOCAL_DATE Using pattern letters, such as uuuu-MMM-dd Using localized styles, such as long or medium

More complex formatters are provided by DateTimeFormatterBuilder.

The main date-time classes provide two methods - one for formatting, format(DateTimeFormatter formatter), and one for parsing, parse(CharSequence text, DateTimeFormatter formatter). For example:

LocalDate date = LocalDate.now(); String text = date.format(formatter); LocalDate parsedDate = LocalDate.parse(text, formatter);

In addition to the format, formatters can be created with desired Locale, Chronology, ZoneId, and DecimalStyle.

The withLocale method returns a new formatter that overrides the locale. The locale affects some aspects of formatting and parsing. For example, the ofLocalizedDate provides a formatter that uses the locale specific date format.

The withChronology method returns a new formatter that overrides the chronology. If overridden, the date-time value is converted to the chronology before formatting. During parsing the date-time value is converted to the chronology before it is returned.

The withZone method returns a new formatter that overrides the zone. If overridden, the date-time value is converted to a ZonedDateTime with the requested ZoneId before formatting. During parsing the ZoneId is applied before the value is returned.

The withDecimalStyle method returns a new formatter that overrides the DecimalStyle. The DecimalStyle symbols are used for formatting and parsing.

Some applications may need to use the older java.text.Format class for formatting. The toFormat() method returns an implementation of java.text.Format.

Patterns for Formatting and Parsing Patterns are based on a simple sequence of letters and symbols. A pattern is used to create a Formatter using the ofPattern(String) and ofPattern(String, Locale) methods. For example, d MMM uuuu will format 2011-12-03 as '3 Dec 2011'. A formatter created from a pattern can be used as many times as necessary, it is immutable and is thread-safe.

For example:

LocalDate date = LocalDate.now(); DateTimeFormatter formatter = DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern(yyyy MM dd); String text = date.format(formatter); LocalDate parsedDate = LocalDate.parse(text, formatter);

All letters 'A' to 'Z' and 'a' to 'z' are reserved as pattern letters. The following pattern letters are defined:

The count of pattern letters determines the format.

Text: The text style is determined based on the number of pattern letters used. Less than 4 pattern letters will use the short form. Exactly 4 pattern letters will use the full form. Exactly 5 pattern letters will use the narrow form. Pattern letters 'L', 'c', and 'q' specify the stand-alone form of the text styles.

Number: If the count of letters is one, then the value is output using the minimum number of digits and without padding. Otherwise, the count of digits is used as the width of the output field, with the value zero-padded as necessary. The following pattern letters have constraints on the count of letters. Only one letter of 'c' and 'F' can be specified. Up to two letters of 'd', 'H', 'h', 'K', 'k', 'm', and 's' can be specified. Up to three letters of 'D' can be specified.

Number/Text: If the count of pattern letters is 3 or greater, use the Text rules above. Otherwise use the Number rules above.

Fraction: Outputs the nano-of-second field as a fraction-of-second. The nano-of-second value has nine digits, thus the count of pattern letters is from 1 to 9. If it is less than 9, then the nano-of-second value is truncated, with only the most significant digits being output.

Year: The count of letters determines the minimum field width below which padding is used. If the count of letters is two, then a reduced two digit form is used. For printing, this outputs the rightmost two digits. For parsing, this will parse using the base value of 2000, resulting in a year within the range 2000 to 2099 inclusive. If the count of letters is less than four (but not two), then the sign is only output for negative years as per SignStyle.NORMAL. Otherwise, the sign is output if the pad width is exceeded, as per SignStyle.EXCEEDS_PAD.

ZoneId: This outputs the time-zone ID, such as 'Europe/Paris'. If the count of letters is two, then the time-zone ID is output. Any other count of letters throws IllegalArgumentException.

Zone names: This outputs the display name of the time-zone ID. If the count of letters is one, two or three, then the short name is output. If the count of letters is four, then the full name is output. Five or more letters throws IllegalArgumentException.

Offset X and x: This formats the offset based on the number of pattern letters. One letter outputs just the hour, such as '+01', unless the minute is non-zero in which case the minute is also output, such as '+0130'. Two letters outputs the hour and minute, without a colon, such as '+0130'. Three letters outputs the hour and minute, with a colon, such as '+01:30'. Four letters outputs the hour and minute and optional second, without a colon, such as '+013015'. Five letters outputs the hour and minute and optional second, with a colon, such as '+01:30:15'. Six or more letters throws IllegalArgumentException. Pattern letter 'X' (upper case) will output 'Z' when the offset to be output would be zero, whereas pattern letter 'x' (lower case) will output '+00', '+0000', or '+00:00'.

Offset O: This formats the localized offset based on the number of pattern letters. One letter outputs the short form of the localized offset, which is localized offset text, such as 'GMT', with hour without leading zero, optional 2-digit minute and second if non-zero, and colon, for example 'GMT+8'. Four letters outputs the full form, which is localized offset text, such as 'GMT, with 2-digit hour and minute field, optional second field if non-zero, and colon, for example 'GMT+08:00'. Any other count of letters throws IllegalArgumentException.

Offset Z: This formats the offset based on the number of pattern letters. One, two or three letters outputs the hour and minute, without a colon, such as '+0130'. The output will be '+0000' when the offset is zero. Four letters outputs the full form of localized offset, equivalent to four letters of Offset-O. The output will be the corresponding localized offset text if the offset is zero. Five letters outputs the hour, minute, with optional second if non-zero, with colon. It outputs 'Z' if the offset is zero. Six or more letters throws IllegalArgumentException.

Optional section: The optional section markers work exactly like calling DateTimeFormatterBuilder.optionalStart() and DateTimeFormatterBuilder.optionalEnd().

Pad modifier: Modifies the pattern that immediately follows to be padded with spaces. The pad width is determined by the number of pattern letters. This is the same as calling DateTimeFormatterBuilder.padNext(int).

For example, 'ppH' outputs the hour-of-day padded on the left with spaces to a width of 2.

Any unrecognized letter is an error. Any non-letter character, other than '[', ']', '{', '}', '#' and the single quote will be output directly. Despite this, it is recommended to use single quotes around all characters that you want to output directly to ensure that future changes do not break your application.

Resolving Parsing is implemented as a two-phase operation. First, the text is parsed using the layout defined by the formatter, producing a Map of field to value, a ZoneId and a Chronology. Second, the parsed data is resolved, by validating, combining and simplifying the various fields into more useful ones.

Five parsing methods are supplied by this class. Four of these perform both the parse and resolve phases. The fifth method, parseUnresolved(CharSequence, ParsePosition), only performs the first phase, leaving the result unresolved. As such, it is essentially a low-level operation.

The resolve phase is controlled by two parameters, set on this class.

The ResolverStyle is an enum that offers three different approaches, strict, smart and lenient. The smart option is the default. It can be set using withResolverStyle(ResolverStyle).

The withResolverFields(TemporalField...) parameter allows the set of fields that will be resolved to be filtered before resolving starts. For example, if the formatter has parsed a year, month, day-of-month and day-of-year, then there are two approaches to resolve a date: (year month day-of-month) and (year day-of-year). The resolver fields allows one of the two approaches to be selected. If no resolver fields are set then both approaches must result in the same date.

Resolving separate fields to form a complete date and time is a complex process with behaviour distributed across a number of classes. It follows these steps:

The chronology is determined. The chronology of the result is either the chronology that was parsed, or if no chronology was parsed, it is the chronology set on this class, or if that is null, it is IsoChronology. The ChronoField date fields are resolved. This is achieved using Chronology.resolveDate(Map, ResolverStyle). Documentation about field resolution is located in the implementation of Chronology. The ChronoField time fields are resolved. This is documented on ChronoField and is the same for all chronologies. Any fields that are not ChronoField are processed. This is achieved using TemporalField.resolve(Map, TemporalAccessor, ResolverStyle). Documentation about field resolution is located in the implementation of TemporalField. The ChronoField date and time fields are re-resolved. This allows fields in step four to produce ChronoField values and have them be processed into dates and times. A LocalTime is formed if there is at least an hour-of-day available. This involves providing default values for minute, second and fraction of second. Any remaining unresolved fields are cross-checked against any date and/or time that was resolved. Thus, an earlier stage would resolve (year month day-of-month) to a date, and this stage would check that day-of-week was valid for the date. If an excess number of days was parsed then it is added to the date if a date is available.

Formatter for printing and parsing date-time objects.

This class provides the main application entry point for printing and parsing
and provides common implementations of DateTimeFormatter:

Using predefined constants, such as ISO_LOCAL_DATE
Using pattern letters, such as uuuu-MMM-dd
Using localized styles, such as long or medium


More complex formatters are provided by
DateTimeFormatterBuilder.


The main date-time classes provide two methods - one for formatting,
format(DateTimeFormatter formatter), and one for parsing,
parse(CharSequence text, DateTimeFormatter formatter).
For example:


 LocalDate date = LocalDate.now();
 String text = date.format(formatter);
 LocalDate parsedDate = LocalDate.parse(text, formatter);

In addition to the format, formatters can be created with desired Locale,
Chronology, ZoneId, and DecimalStyle.

The withLocale method returns a new formatter that
overrides the locale. The locale affects some aspects of formatting and
parsing. For example, the ofLocalizedDate provides a
formatter that uses the locale specific date format.

The withChronology method returns a new formatter
that overrides the chronology. If overridden, the date-time value is
converted to the chronology before formatting. During parsing the date-time
value is converted to the chronology before it is returned.

The withZone method returns a new formatter that overrides
the zone. If overridden, the date-time value is converted to a ZonedDateTime
with the requested ZoneId before formatting. During parsing the ZoneId is
applied before the value is returned.

The withDecimalStyle method returns a new formatter that
overrides the DecimalStyle. The DecimalStyle symbols are used for
formatting and parsing.

Some applications may need to use the older java.text.Format
class for formatting. The toFormat() method returns an
implementation of java.text.Format.

Patterns for Formatting and Parsing
Patterns are based on a simple sequence of letters and symbols.
A pattern is used to create a Formatter using the
ofPattern(String) and ofPattern(String, Locale) methods.
For example,
`d MMM uuuu` will format 2011-12-03 as '3 Dec 2011'.
A formatter created from a pattern can be used as many times as necessary,
it is immutable and is thread-safe.

For example:


 LocalDate date = LocalDate.now();
 DateTimeFormatter formatter = DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern(`yyyy MM dd`);
 String text = date.format(formatter);
 LocalDate parsedDate = LocalDate.parse(text, formatter);

All letters 'A' to 'Z' and 'a' to 'z' are reserved as pattern letters. The
following pattern letters are defined:

The count of pattern letters determines the format.

Text: The text style is determined based on the number of pattern
letters used. Less than 4 pattern letters will use the
short form. Exactly 4 pattern letters will use the
full form. Exactly 5 pattern letters will use the
narrow form.
Pattern letters 'L', 'c', and 'q' specify the stand-alone form of the text styles.

Number: If the count of letters is one, then the value is output using
the minimum number of digits and without padding. Otherwise, the count of digits
is used as the width of the output field, with the value zero-padded as necessary.
The following pattern letters have constraints on the count of letters.
Only one letter of 'c' and 'F' can be specified.
Up to two letters of 'd', 'H', 'h', 'K', 'k', 'm', and 's' can be specified.
Up to three letters of 'D' can be specified.

Number/Text: If the count of pattern letters is 3 or greater, use the
Text rules above. Otherwise use the Number rules above.

Fraction: Outputs the nano-of-second field as a fraction-of-second.
The nano-of-second value has nine digits, thus the count of pattern letters
is from 1 to 9. If it is less than 9, then the nano-of-second value is
truncated, with only the most significant digits being output.

Year: The count of letters determines the minimum field width below
which padding is used. If the count of letters is two, then a
reduced two digit form is
used. For printing, this outputs the rightmost two digits. For parsing, this
will parse using the base value of 2000, resulting in a year within the range
2000 to 2099 inclusive. If the count of letters is less than four (but not
two), then the sign is only output for negative years as per
SignStyle.NORMAL. Otherwise, the sign is output if the pad width is
exceeded, as per SignStyle.EXCEEDS_PAD.

ZoneId: This outputs the time-zone ID, such as 'Europe/Paris'. If the
count of letters is two, then the time-zone ID is output. Any other count of
letters throws IllegalArgumentException.

Zone names: This outputs the display name of the time-zone ID. If the
count of letters is one, two or three, then the short name is output. If the
count of letters is four, then the full name is output. Five or more letters
throws IllegalArgumentException.

Offset X and x: This formats the offset based on the number of pattern
letters. One letter outputs just the hour, such as '+01', unless the minute
is non-zero in which case the minute is also output, such as '+0130'. Two
letters outputs the hour and minute, without a colon, such as '+0130'. Three
letters outputs the hour and minute, with a colon, such as '+01:30'. Four
letters outputs the hour and minute and optional second, without a colon,
such as '+013015'. Five letters outputs the hour and minute and optional
second, with a colon, such as '+01:30:15'. Six or more letters throws
IllegalArgumentException. Pattern letter 'X' (upper case) will output
'Z' when the offset to be output would be zero, whereas pattern letter 'x'
(lower case) will output '+00', '+0000', or '+00:00'.

Offset O: This formats the localized offset based on the number of
pattern letters. One letter outputs the short
form of the localized offset, which is localized offset text, such as 'GMT',
with hour without leading zero, optional 2-digit minute and second if
non-zero, and colon, for example 'GMT+8'. Four letters outputs the
full form, which is localized offset text,
such as 'GMT, with 2-digit hour and minute field, optional second field
if non-zero, and colon, for example 'GMT+08:00'. Any other count of letters
throws IllegalArgumentException.

Offset Z: This formats the offset based on the number of pattern
letters. One, two or three letters outputs the hour and minute, without a
colon, such as '+0130'. The output will be '+0000' when the offset is zero.
Four letters outputs the full form of localized
offset, equivalent to four letters of Offset-O. The output will be the
corresponding localized offset text if the offset is zero. Five
letters outputs the hour, minute, with optional second if non-zero, with
colon. It outputs 'Z' if the offset is zero.
Six or more letters throws IllegalArgumentException.

Optional section: The optional section markers work exactly like
calling DateTimeFormatterBuilder.optionalStart() and
DateTimeFormatterBuilder.optionalEnd().

Pad modifier: Modifies the pattern that immediately follows to be
padded with spaces. The pad width is determined by the number of pattern
letters. This is the same as calling
DateTimeFormatterBuilder.padNext(int).

For example, 'ppH' outputs the hour-of-day padded on the left with spaces to
a width of 2.

Any unrecognized letter is an error. Any non-letter character, other than
'[', ']', '{', '}', '#' and the single quote will be output directly.
Despite this, it is recommended to use single quotes around all characters
that you want to output directly to ensure that future changes do not break
your application.

Resolving
Parsing is implemented as a two-phase operation.
First, the text is parsed using the layout defined by the formatter, producing
a Map of field to value, a ZoneId and a Chronology.
Second, the parsed data is resolved, by validating, combining and
simplifying the various fields into more useful ones.

Five parsing methods are supplied by this class.
Four of these perform both the parse and resolve phases.
The fifth method, parseUnresolved(CharSequence, ParsePosition),
only performs the first phase, leaving the result unresolved.
As such, it is essentially a low-level operation.

The resolve phase is controlled by two parameters, set on this class.

The ResolverStyle is an enum that offers three different approaches,
strict, smart and lenient. The smart option is the default.
It can be set using withResolverStyle(ResolverStyle).

The withResolverFields(TemporalField...) parameter allows the
set of fields that will be resolved to be filtered before resolving starts.
For example, if the formatter has parsed a year, month, day-of-month
and day-of-year, then there are two approaches to resolve a date:
(year  month  day-of-month) and (year  day-of-year).
The resolver fields allows one of the two approaches to be selected.
If no resolver fields are set then both approaches must result in the same date.

Resolving separate fields to form a complete date and time is a complex
process with behaviour distributed across a number of classes.
It follows these steps:

The chronology is determined.
The chronology of the result is either the chronology that was parsed,
or if no chronology was parsed, it is the chronology set on this class,
or if that is null, it is IsoChronology.
The ChronoField date fields are resolved.
This is achieved using Chronology.resolveDate(Map, ResolverStyle).
Documentation about field resolution is located in the implementation
of Chronology.
The ChronoField time fields are resolved.
This is documented on ChronoField and is the same for all chronologies.
Any fields that are not ChronoField are processed.
This is achieved using TemporalField.resolve(Map, TemporalAccessor, ResolverStyle).
Documentation about field resolution is located in the implementation
of TemporalField.
The ChronoField date and time fields are re-resolved.
This allows fields in step four to produce ChronoField values
and have them be processed into dates and times.
A LocalTime is formed if there is at least an hour-of-day available.
This involves providing default values for minute, second and fraction of second.
Any remaining unresolved fields are cross-checked against any
date and/or time that was resolved. Thus, an earlier stage would resolve
(year  month  day-of-month) to a date, and this stage would check that
day-of-week was valid for the date.
If an excess number of days
was parsed then it is added to the date if a date is available.

type: java.time.format.DateTimeFormatter

Static Constant.

The RFC-1123 date-time formatter, such as 'Tue, 3 Jun 2008 11:05:30 GMT'.

 This returns an immutable formatter capable of formatting and parsing
 most of the RFC-1123 format.
 RFC-1123 updates RFC-822 changing the year from two digits to four.
 This implementation requires a four digit year.
 This implementation also does not handle North American or military zone
 names, only 'GMT' and offset amounts.

 The format consists of:

 If the day-of-week is not available to format or parse then jump to day-of-month.
 Three letter day-of-week in English.
 A comma
 A space
 One or two digits for the day-of-month.
 A space
 Three letter month-of-year in English.
 A space
 Four digits for the year.
  Only years in the range 0000 to 9999 are supported.
 A space
 Two digits for the hour-of-day.
  This is pre-padded by zero to ensure two digits.
 A colon
 Two digits for the minute-of-hour.
  This is pre-padded by zero to ensure two digits.
 If the second-of-minute is not available then jump to the next space.
 A colon
 Two digits for the second-of-minute.
  This is pre-padded by zero to ensure two digits.
 A space
 The offset ID without colons or seconds.
  An offset of zero uses `GMT`. North American zone names and military zone names are not handled.

*parsed-excess-daysclj

(*parsed-excess-days)

A query that provides access to the excess days that were parsed.

This returns a singleton java.time.temporal.query that provides access to additional information from the parse. The query always returns a non-null period, with a zero period returned instead of null.

There are two situations where this query may return a non-zero period.

If the ResolverStyle is LENIENT and a time is parsed without a date, then the complete result of the parse consists of a LocalTime and an excess Period in days.

If the ResolverStyle is SMART and a time is parsed without a date where the time is 24:00:00, then the complete result of the parse consists of a LocalTime of 00:00:00 and an excess Period of one day.

In both cases, if a complete ChronoLocalDateTime or Instant is parsed, then the excess days are added to the date part. As a result, this query will return a zero period.

The SMART behaviour handles the common end of day 24:00 value. Processing in LENIENT mode also produces the same result:

Text to parse Parsed object Excess days 2012-12-03T00:00 LocalDateTime.of(2012, 12, 3, 0, 0) ZERO 2012-12-03T24:00 LocalDateTime.of(2012, 12, 4, 0, 0) ZERO 00:00 LocalTime.of(0, 0) ZERO 24:00 LocalTime.of(0, 0) Period.ofDays(1) The query can be used as follows:

TemporalAccessor parsed = formatter.parse(str); LocalTime time = parsed.query(LocalTime::from); Period extraDays = parsed.query(DateTimeFormatter.parsedExcessDays());

returns: a query that provides access to the excess days that were parsed - java.time.temporal.TemporalQuery<java.time.Period>

A query that provides access to the excess days that were parsed.

 This returns a singleton java.time.temporal.query that provides
 access to additional information from the parse. The query always returns
 a non-null period, with a zero period returned instead of null.

 There are two situations where this query may return a non-zero period.

 If the ResolverStyle is LENIENT and a time is parsed
  without a date, then the complete result of the parse consists of a
  LocalTime and an excess Period in days.

 If the ResolverStyle is SMART and a time is parsed
  without a date where the time is 24:00:00, then the complete result of
  the parse consists of a LocalTime of 00:00:00 and an excess
  Period of one day.


 In both cases, if a complete ChronoLocalDateTime or Instant
 is parsed, then the excess days are added to the date part.
 As a result, this query will return a zero period.

 The SMART behaviour handles the common `end of day` 24:00 value.
 Processing in LENIENT mode also produces the same result:


  Text to parse        Parsed object                         Excess days
  `2012-12-03T00:00`   LocalDateTime.of(2012, 12, 3, 0, 0)   ZERO

  `24:00`              LocalTime.of(0, 0)                    Period.ofDays(1)
 The query can be used as follows:


  TemporalAccessor parsed = formatter.parse(str);
  LocalTime time = parsed.query(LocalTime::from);

*parsed-leap-secondclj

(*parsed-leap-second)

A query that provides access to whether a leap-second was parsed.

This returns a singleton java.time.temporal.query that provides access to additional information from the parse. The query always returns a non-null boolean, true if parsing saw a leap-second, false if not.

Instant parsing handles the special leap second time of '23:59:60'. Leap seconds occur at '23:59:60' in the UTC time-zone, but at other local times in different time-zones. To avoid this potential ambiguity, the handling of leap-seconds is limited to DateTimeFormatterBuilder.appendInstant(), as that method always parses the instant with the UTC zone offset.

If the time '23:59:60' is received, then a simple conversion is applied, replacing the second-of-minute of 60 with 59. This query can be used on the parse result to determine if the leap-second adjustment was made. The query will return true if it did adjust to remove the leap-second, and false if not. Note that applying a leap-second smoothing mechanism, such as UTC-SLS, is the responsibility of the application, as follows:

TemporalAccessor parsed = formatter.parse(str); Instant instant = parsed.query(Instant::from); if (parsed.query(DateTimeFormatter.parsedLeapSecond())) { // validate leap-second is correct and apply correct smoothing }

returns: a query that provides access to whether a leap-second was parsed - java.time.temporal.TemporalQuery<java.lang.Boolean>

A query that provides access to whether a leap-second was parsed.

 This returns a singleton java.time.temporal.query that provides

 Instant parsing handles the special `leap second` time of '23:59:60'.
 Leap seconds occur at '23:59:60' in the UTC time-zone, but at other
 local times in different time-zones. To avoid this potential ambiguity,
 the handling of leap-seconds is limited to

parseclj

(parse this text)
(parse this text position)

Parses the text using this formatter, providing control over the text position.

This parses the text without requiring the parse to start from the beginning of the string or finish at the end. The result of this method is TemporalAccessor which has been resolved, applying basic validation checks to help ensure a valid date-time.

The text will be parsed from the specified start ParsePosition. The entire length of the text does not have to be parsed, the ParsePosition will be updated with the index at the end of parsing.

The operation of this method is slightly different to similar methods using ParsePosition on java.text.Format. That class will return errors using the error index on the ParsePosition. By contrast, this method will throw a DateTimeParseException if an error occurs, with the exception containing the error index. This change in behavior is necessary due to the increased complexity of parsing and resolving dates/times in this API.

parse-bestclj

(parse-best this text queries)

Fully parses the text producing an object of one of the specified types.

This parse method is convenient for use when the parser can handle optional elements. For example, a pattern of 'uuuu-MM-dd HH.mm[ VV]' can be fully parsed to a ZonedDateTime, or partially parsed to a LocalDateTime. The queries must be specified in order, starting from the best matching full-parse option and ending with the worst matching minimal parse option. The query is typically a method reference to a from(TemporalAccessor) method.

The result is associated with the first type that successfully parses. Normally, applications will use instanceof to check the result. For example:

TemporalAccessor dt = parser.parseBest(str, ZonedDateTime::from, LocalDateTime::from); if (dt instanceof ZonedDateTime) { ... } else { ... } If the parse completes without reading the entire length of the text, or a problem occurs during parsing or merging, then an exception is thrown.

parse-unresolvedclj

(parse-unresolved this text position)

Parses the text using this formatter, without resolving the result, intended for advanced use cases.

Parsing is implemented as a two-phase operation. First, the text is parsed using the layout defined by the formatter, producing a Map of field to value, a ZoneId and a Chronology. Second, the parsed data is resolved, by validating, combining and simplifying the various fields into more useful ones. This method performs the parsing stage but not the resolving stage.

The result of this method is TemporalAccessor which represents the data as seen in the input. Values are not validated, thus parsing a date string of '2012-00-65' would result in a temporal with three fields - year of '2012', month of '0' and day-of-month of '65'.

The text will be parsed from the specified start ParsePosition. The entire length of the text does not have to be parsed, the ParsePosition will be updated with the index at the end of parsing.

Errors are returned using the error index field of the ParsePosition instead of DateTimeParseException. The returned error index will be set to an index indicative of the error. Callers must check for errors before using the result.

If the formatter parses the same field more than once with different values, the result will be an error.

This method is intended for advanced use cases that need access to the internal state during parsing. Typical application code should use parse(CharSequence, TemporalQuery) or the parse method on the target type.

with-chronologyclj

(with-chronology this chrono)

Returns a copy of this formatter with a new override chronology.

This returns a formatter with similar state to this formatter but with the override chronology set. By default, a formatter has no override chronology, returning null.

If an override is added, then any date that is formatted or parsed will be affected.

When formatting, if the temporal object contains a date, then it will be converted to a date in the override chronology. Whether the temporal contains a date is determined by querying the EPOCH_DAY field. Any time or zone will be retained unaltered unless overridden.

If the temporal object does not contain a date, but does contain one or more ChronoField date fields, then a DateTimeException is thrown. In all other cases, the override chronology is added to the temporal, replacing any previous chronology, but without changing the date/time.

When parsing, there are two distinct cases to consider. If a chronology has been parsed directly from the text, perhaps because DateTimeFormatterBuilder.appendChronologyId() was used, then this override chronology has no effect. If no zone has been parsed, then this override chronology will be used to interpret the ChronoField values into a date according to the date resolving rules of the chronology.

This instance is immutable and unaffected by this method call.

with-resolver-fieldsclj

(with-resolver-fields this resolver-fields)

Returns a copy of this formatter with a new set of resolver fields.

This returns a formatter with similar state to this formatter but with the resolver fields set. By default, a formatter has no resolver fields.

Changing the resolver fields only has an effect during parsing. Parsing a text string occurs in two phases. Phase 1 is a basic text parse according to the fields added to the builder. Phase 2 resolves the parsed field-value pairs into date and/or time objects. The resolver fields are used to filter the field-value pairs between phase 1 and 2.

This can be used to select between two or more ways that a date or time might be resolved. For example, if the formatter consists of year, month, day-of-month and day-of-year, then there are two ways to resolve a date. Calling this method with the arguments YEAR and DAY_OF_YEAR will ensure that the date is resolved using the year and day-of-year, effectively meaning that the month and day-of-month are ignored during the resolving phase.

In a similar manner, this method can be used to ignore secondary fields that would otherwise be cross-checked. For example, if the formatter consists of year, month, day-of-month and day-of-week, then there is only one way to resolve a date, but the parsed value for day-of-week will be cross-checked against the resolved date. Calling this method with the arguments YEAR, MONTH_OF_YEAR and DAY_OF_MONTH will ensure that the date is resolved correctly, but without any cross-check for the day-of-week.

In implementation terms, this method behaves as follows. The result of the parsing phase can be considered to be a map of field to value. The behavior of this method is to cause that map to be filtered between phase 1 and 2, removing all fields other than those specified as arguments to this method.

This instance is immutable and unaffected by this method call.

resolver-fields - the new set of resolver fields, null if no fields - java.time.temporal.TemporalField

with-resolver-styleclj

(with-resolver-style this resolver-style)

Returns a copy of this formatter with a new resolver style.

This returns a formatter with similar state to this formatter but with the resolver style set. By default, a formatter has the SMART resolver style.

Changing the resolver style only has an effect during parsing. Parsing a text string occurs in two phases. Phase 1 is a basic text parse according to the fields added to the builder. Phase 2 resolves the parsed field-value pairs into date and/or time objects. The resolver style is used to control how phase 2, resolving, happens. See ResolverStyle for more information on the options available.

with-zoneclj

(with-zone this zone)

Returns a copy of this formatter with a new override zone.

This returns a formatter with similar state to this formatter but with the override zone set. By default, a formatter has no override zone, returning null.

If an override is added, then any instant that is formatted or parsed will be affected.

When formatting, if the temporal object contains an instant, then it will be converted to a zoned date-time using the override zone. Whether the temporal is an instant is determined by querying the INSTANT_SECONDS field. If the input has a chronology then it will be retained unless overridden. If the input does not have a chronology, such as Instant, then the ISO chronology will be used.

If the temporal object does not contain an instant, but does contain an offset then an additional check is made. If the normalized override zone is an offset that differs from the offset of the temporal, then a DateTimeException is thrown. In all other cases, the override zone is added to the temporal, replacing any previous zone, but without changing the date/time.

When parsing, there are two distinct cases to consider. If a zone has been parsed directly from the text, perhaps because DateTimeFormatterBuilder.appendZoneId() was used, then this override zone has no effect. If no zone has been parsed, then this override zone will be included in the result of the parse where it can be used to build instants and date-times.

This instance is immutable and unaffected by this method call.
