将字符串解析为C＃中的DateTime对象

Question

I am trying to Parse a String date and time into a single .NET DateTime object. I have the following code:

string dtObjFormat = "dd MMM YYYY HH:mm";
string mydatetimemash = e.Date + " " + e.Time; // this becomes 25 May 2013 10:30
DateTime dt;

if (DateTime.TryParseExact(mydatetimemash, dtObjFormat, CultureInfo.InvariantCulture, DateTimeStyles.None, out dt))
{
    Console.WriteLine(dt);
} else 
{
    dt = DateTime.Now;
    Console.WriteLine(dt);
}

But the TryParseExact always returns false for me, meaning the Parse fails. What am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

Your Y's need to be lower case, like so:

string dtObjFormat = "dd MMM yyyy HH:mm";
string mydatetimemash = e.Date + " " + e.Time; // this becomes 25 May 2013 10:30
DateTime dt;

if (DateTime.TryParseExact(mydatetimemash, dtObjFormat, CultureInfo.InvariantCulture, DateTimeStyles.None, out dt))
{
    Console.WriteLine(dt);
} else 
{
    dt = DateTime.Now;
    Console.WriteLine(dt);
}
