C＃DateTime.ParseExact抛出格式异常

Question

I'm developing an .NET4 webapplication using MVC3.

Let's say i'm getting the following DateTime as string from an XML-feed. The xml feed is being read by my application and i'm looping through all it's descendants. The DateTime i'm receiving is begin returned in the following format (as string);

var myDateTime = "Sun Dec 19 11:45:45 +0000 2010"

I'm using the piece of code below to try and parse the DateTime string i mentioned above to a valid DateTime format (preferably dutch)

var CorrectDateTime = DateTime.ParseExact(myDateTime , "dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);

When trying to execute this code i'm facing an formatexception. Somebody has got any ideas?

--UPDATE--

This is what i've got after various answers. Still throwing the same exception though.

var correctedDateTime = DateTime.ParseExact(latestTweetTime, "ddd MMM HH:mm:ss K yyyy", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);
string display = correctedDateTime.ToString("dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss");

Answer 1

Try changing your parsing format to this:

"ddd MMM HH:mm:ss K yyyy"

If you wish to reformat the DateTime then specify that format string when you call DateTime.ToString on your parsed DateTime :

string display = CorrectedDateTime.ToString("dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss");

Answer 2

If you're trying to read this: "Sun Dec 19 11:45:45 +0000 2010"

You need an additional "d" or "dd" like so:

"ddd MMM d HH:mm:ss K yyyy"

or

"ddd MMM dd HH:mm:ss K yyyy"

depending on whether the input zero-prefixed.

You need each piece of the input string to be accounted for, here is a summary of the different components from MSDN: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/8kb3ddd4.aspx

ddd = Three letter Day of week
MMM = Three letter month
dd = Two digit day of month 01-31  (use "d" for 1-31)
HH = Hours using 24-hour clock. 00-24  (use "H" for 0-24)
mm = Minutes. 00-59
ss = Seconds. 00-59
K = Time zone information
yyyy = 4-digit year

Answer 3

According to the date you've specified (assuming the time is in 24 hour) your input format string should be:

ddd MMM d H:mm:ss K yyyy. 
Sun Dec 19 11:45:45 +0000 2010

So:

var correctedDateTime = DateTime.ParseExact(myDateTime, "ddd MMM d H:mm:ss K yyyy", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);
string display = correctedDateTime.ToString("dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss");

A couple of things to note, the extra single d to capture the date and I would use a single H to allow for '01' and '1'. See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/az4se3k1(v=VS.100).aspx for the full format details.
