Method TryParseExact
in code block below returns true
.
I would like to know why.
I think this date "2013.03.12"
is invalid because this is not separated by slash but dot.
After I changed the CultureInfo
"de-De"
to "en-US"
, the method returns false
. This could be a hint but I still don't know why this happens.
var format = new string[] { "yyyy/MM/dd" };
var parsed = new DateTime();
var result = DateTime.TryParseExact("2013.03.12", format,
new CultureInfo("de-DE"), DateTimeStyles.None, out parsed);
I think your current DateSeparator
is .
(dot) and /
automatically replace itself to it.
/
separator has a special meaning of "replace me with the current culture's date separator".
CultureInfo c = new CultureInfo("de-DE");
Console.WriteLine(c.DateTimeFormat.DateSeparator); //Prints . (dot)
Take a look at the "/"
Custom Format Specifier.
