parseLocalDateQuiet

parseLocalDateQuiet parses the string argument as a local date, which is a date without a time or time zone. Date-strings are formatted according to the ISO 8601 date time format as YYYY-MM-DD.

"Quiet" methods return null instead of throwing an exception when encountering a string that cannot be parsed.

Syntax

parseLocalDateQuiet(s)

Parameters

ParameterTypeDescription

The string to be converted. Format is yyyy-MM-dd.

Examples

date = parseLocalDateQuiet("1995-08-02")
dateinvalid = parseLocalDateQuiet("1995e-08-02")
println date
println dateinvalid
