Both of these patterns working fine when tested separately but they are not working together in a single ofPattern { "[]" + "[]"}
statement.
Please guide what am I missing here
import java.time.format.DateTimeFormatter;
import java.time.format.DateTimeFormatterBuilder;
import java.time.LocalDate;
import java.time.LocalDateTime;
import java.time.LocalTime;
public class SampleProgram {
private static final DateTimeFormatter dateTimeFormats = DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern(
"[yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSS]" + //: Year, month, day, 'T' separator, hour, minute, second, and milliseconds (e.g., 2023-05-21T12:34:56.789)
"[yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSSSSS]" //: Year, month, day, 'T' separator, hour, minute, second, and microseconds (e.g., 2023-05-21T12:34:56.123456)
);
private static final String[] inputArray = new String[]{
"2021-01-30T23:45:00.123",
"2023-08-15T12:34:56.789123",
};
public static void main(String[] args) {
for (var input : inputArray) {
var ignore = LocalDateTime.parse(input, dateTimeFormats);
}
System.out.println("No exception occured!");
}
}
Output:
Exception in thread "main" java.time.format.DateTimeParseException: Text '2023-08-15T12:34:56.789123' could not be parsed, unparsed text found at index 23

You do not need any DateTimeFormatter
because both of your date-time strings are in ISO 8601 format which is the default format used by java.time
types.
public static void main(String[] args) {
for (var input : inputArray) {
var ignore = LocalDateTime.parse(input);
}
System.out.println("No exception occured!");
}
Output:
No exception occurred!
In case, you want to use your DateTimeFormatter
, change it to make just the fraction-of-second part optional.
DateTimeFormatter dateTimeFormats = DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern(
"yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss[.[SSSSSS][SSS]]");
