如何从 JDateChooser 获取日期并格式化它？

Question

How to get a date from JDateChooser and format it?

JDateChooser instance

private void jDateChooser1PropertyChange(java.beans.PropertyChangeEvent evt) { 
   
   SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd");

   String date = sdf.format(jDateChooser1.getDate());
   System.out.println("date:"+ date);
   
}  

I am getting errors shown below

Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke 
"java.util.Date.getTime()" because "date" is null

private void jDateChooser1PropertyChange(java.beans.PropertyChangeEvent evt) {                                             
   if ("date".equals(evt.getPropertyName())) { 
       SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd");
       String date = sdf.format(jDateChooser1.getDate());
       System.out.println("date:"+ date);
   }else{
       System.out.println("null");
   } 
} 

Now it's working.
