How to format YearMonth and MonthDay depending on a Locale?
<p>Formatting a <code>LocalDate</code> in Java 8 using a specific <code>Locale</code> can be achieved like this:</p>

<pre><code>DateTimeFormatter.ofLocalizedDate(FormatStyle.SHORT).withLocale(myLocale).format(value);
DateTimeFormatter.ofLocalizedDate(FormatStyle.MEDIUM).withLocale(myLocale).format(value);
DateTimeFormatter.ofLocalizedDate(FormatStyle.LONG).withLocale(myLocale).format(value);
DateTimeFormatter.ofLocalizedDate(FormatStyle.FULL).withLocale(myLocale).format(value);
</code></pre>

<p>Assuming <code>value = LocalDate.now()</code> this would result into:</p>

<pre><code>// myLocale = Locale.ENGLISH
6/30/16
Jun 30, 2016
June 30, 2016
Thursday, June 30, 2016

// myLocale = Locale.GERMAN
30.06.16
30.06.2016
30. Juni 2016
Donnerstag, 30. Juni 2016

// myLocale = new Locale("es", "ES")
30/06/16
30-jun-2016
30 de junio de 2016
jueves 30 de junio de 2016
</code></pre>

<p>As you can see Java decides which delimiter ("-", ".", "/", " ", etc.) to use and how to sort the date elements (e.g. month before day or vice versa, etc - in some locales it could be that year comes first, etc.).</p>

<p><strong>My question is:</strong> How can I format a <code>java.time.YearMonth</code> and <code>java.time.MonthDay</code> depending on a <code>Locale</code> like the example above?</p>

<p>Based on the example I would expect results like this...</p>

<p>... for <code>YearMonth</code>:</p>

<pre><code>// myLocale = Locale.ENGLISH
6/16
Jun, 2016
June, 2016
June, 2016

// myLocale = Locale.GERMAN
06.16
06.2016
Juni 2016
Juni 2016

// myLocale = new Locale("es", "ES")
06/16
jun-2016
de junio de 2016
de junio de 2016
</code></pre>

<p>... for <code>MonthDay</code>:</p>

<pre><code>// myLocale = Locale.ENGLISH
6/30
Jun 30
June 30
June 30

// myLocale = Locale.GERMAN
30.06.
30.06.
30. Juni
30. Juni

// myLocale = new Locale("es", "ES")
30/06
30-jun
30 de junio de
30 de junio de
</code></pre>

<p>Of course there could be other <code>Locale</code>s which use completely different delimiters and ordering.</p>

<p>Thank you!</p>
