DateTimeFormatter for patterin MM/yy

I got this error when I do this

LocalDate.parse(expirationDate,DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern("MM/yy");

java.time.format.DateTimeParseException: Text '09/14' could not be parsed at index 5

I have test with the builder but I don't know how to do it?

Someone had some clue ?

Thanks!

LocalDate needs to contain day. If you don't plan to provide it you can use YearMonth instead.

YearMonth yearMonth = YearMonth.parse("09/14",DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern("MM/yy"));

You can later build LocalDate with some day value like 

LocalDate firstDay = yearMonth.atDay(1);
