    • LocalTimeStringConverter

      public LocalTimeStringConverter(DateTimeFormatter formatter, DateTimeFormatter parser)

      Creates a LocalTimeStringConverter that uses the given formatter and parser.

      For example, a fixed pattern can be used for converting both ways:

      String pattern = "HH:mm:ss";
DateTimeFormatter formatter = DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern(pattern);
StringConverter<LocalTime> converter = DateTimeStringConverter.getLocalTimeConverter(formatter, null);
      Parameters:
      formatter - the formatter that will be used by the toString() method. If null, a default formatter will be used.
      parser - the parser that will be used by the fromString() method. This can be identical to formatter. If null, formatter will be used, and if that is also null, a default parser will be used.
