Java 8 - Trying to convert String to LocalDateTime

Question

I am trying to convert the below String to LocalDateTime, but somehow its not working.

val formatter = DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern("yyyy-MM-dd hh:mm:ss.SSS");
val dateTime = LocalDateTime.parse("2016-09-21 13:43:27.000", formatter);

It seems there is a problem in Pattern.

This isn't really a duplicate of the nominated question. The nominated question wants java.util.Date, and this wants java.time.LocalDateTime. — dcsohl, Aug 09 '17 at 15:59

You have a problem with your pattern. You should use 'H' for hours (0-23). The type for formatter and dateTime is wrong.

This would work correctly:

DateTimeFormatter formatter = DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.SSS");
LocalDateTime dateTime = LocalDateTime.parse("2016-09-21 13:43:27.000", formatter);
