Java code snippet no longer working to create dates in 3.3.2, worked fine in 3.3.1 and prior builds

I have been using the following custom property for years to create dates which I then pass for my insertion of transactions in my rest web service calls.  The below example has always created the da...

    The custom property worked perfectly! Let me ask one more thing. With the old java, I could modify the dates such as:

     

    Same Day
    ${=import javax.xml.datatype.DatatypeFactory; def cal = Calendar.instance;cal.getTime().format("MM/dd/yyyy")}

    Future Date
    ${=import javax.xml.datatype.DatatypeFactory; def cal = Calendar.instance;cal.add(Calendar.DATE, 1000);cal.getTime().format("MM/dd/yyyy")}

     

    Is that possible using the SimpleDate snippets?

    1) Future date custom property with Local Date class: 

    ${= import java.time.LocalDate; LocalDate.now().plusDays(1).format(java.time.format.DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern("MM/dd/yyyy"))}

    or

    ${=java.time.LocalDateTime.now().plusDays(1).format(java.time.format.DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern("MM/dd/yyyy"))}

     

    2) Future Date in groovy with Simple Date Format:

    import groovy.time.TimeCategory
    import java.text.SimpleDateFormat

     

    use(TimeCategory) {
    def time = new Date()+ 1.days
    date = new SimpleDateFormat ("MM/dd/yyyy").format(time)

    }
