JodaTime : How to get ISO formatted time from DateTime object?

Issue

I'm getting DTO using the Joda:

dateTimeObj = new DateTime();

I would like to convert this DTO to formatted string in ISO format:

2016-03-06T11:30:00-05:00

I tried it using the:

dateTimeObj = new DateTime().toDateTimeISO();

But without the luck.

How can i do it in the right way please?

Solution

toDateTimeISO() is deprecated, use toDateTime() http://joda-time.sourceforge.net/apidocs/org/joda/time/Instant.html

Also:

DateTime dt = new DateTime();
DateTimeFormatter fmt = DateTimeFormat.forPattern("MMMM, yyyy");
String str = fmt.print(dt);

See pattern syntax here: http://joda-time.sourceforge.net/apidocs/org/joda/time/format/DateTimeFormat.html
