Hi I've got a date string to be input to Joda. The string has the day-of-month left padded with a space for day-of -month smaller than 10. I'd like to create a DateTimeFormatter capable of dealing with this string.
For instance January 10 2008 has a date string of "Jan 10 2008" (one space between the month name and day-of-month) but January 1 2008 has a date string of "Jan 1 2008" (two spaces between month name and day-of- month. I've experimented with various DateTimeFormat format strings with DateTimeFormatter dtf = DateTimeFormat.forPattern(<pattern goes here>) but without success. I thought of creating 2 formatters, one for single digit months and one for double digit months and running one of the formatter's parseDateTime() methods inside the catch block of the illegal argument exception generated by the other parser. But even if that works it seems like a pretty clunky wat to do it. Is there a clean reliable way to solve this problem (hopefully with a single DateTimeFormatter object?? Thanks in advance for your help.
