Format LocalDateTime with Timezone in Java8

by

LocalDateTime is a date-time without a time-zone. You specified the time zone offset format symbol in the format, however, LocalDateTime doesn’t have such information. That’s why the error occured.

If you want time-zone information, you should use ZonedDateTime.

DateTimeFormatter FORMATTER = DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern("yyyyMMdd HH:mm:ss.SSSSSS Z");
ZonedDateTime.now().format(FORMATTER);
=> "20140829 14:12:22.122000 +09"
