The parse(CharSequence text, DateTimeFormatter formatter) method of the MonthDay class in Java is used to get an instance of MonthDay from a text string using a specific formatter.
Syntax:
public static MonthDay parse(
CharSequence text,

Parameters: This method accepts
- text as a parameter to parse and
- formatter as a parameter to use.
Return value: This method returns the parsed month-day.
Exceptions: This method throws DateTimeParseException if the text cannot be parsed.
Below programs illustrate the parse(CharSequence text, DateTimeFormatter formatter) method of MonthDay in Java:
Program 1:
// Java program to demonstrate// MonthDay.parse(CharSequence text,// DateTimeFormatter formatter) method import java.time.*;import java.time.temporal.*;import java.time.format.*; public class GFG { public static void main(String[] args) { // apply ofpattern() method // of DateTimeFormatter class DateTimeFormatter datetimeformatter = DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern("--MM-dd"); // apply parse(CharSequence text, // DateTimeFormatter formatter) method // of MonthDay class MonthDay monthday = MonthDay.parse( "--05-09", datetimeformatter); // print monthday // in mm-dd format System.out.println("MonthDay: " + monthday); }} |
Output:
MonthDay: --05-09
Program 2:
// Java program to demonstrate// MonthDay.parse(CharSequence text,// DateTimeFormatter formatter) method import java.time.*;import java.time.temporal.*;import java.time.format.*; public class GFG { public static void main(String[] args) { // apply ofpattern() method // of DateTimeFormatter class DateTimeFormatter datetimeformatter = DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern("--dd-MM"); // apply parse(CharSequence text, // DateTimeFormatter formatter) method // of MonthDay class MonthDay monthday = MonthDay.parse( "--05-09", datetimeformatter); // print monthday // in dd-mm format System.out.println("MonthDay: " + monthday); }} |
Output:
MonthDay: --09-05
