Create LocalDate Object from Integers
Use LocalDate#of(int, int, int)
method that takes year, month and dayOfMonth.
In addition to Rohit's answer you can use this code to get Localdate from String
String str = "2015-03-15";
DateTimeFormatter formatter = DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern("yyyy-MM-dd");
LocalDate dateTime = LocalDate.parse(str, formatter);
System.out.println(dateTime);
You can create LocalDate like this, using ints
LocalDate inputDate = LocalDate.of(year,month,dayOfMonth);
and to create LocalDate from String you can use
String date = "04/04/2004";
inputDate = LocalDate.parse(date,
DateTimeFormat.forPattern("dd/MM/yyyy"));
You can use other formats too but you have to change String in forPattern(...)
