C# - How To Create A DateTime Object Not In The Current Culture?

Jul 29, 2010

I'm really drawing a blank on this one. I've been working on globalization but the DateTime seems to always revert back to the CurrentThread's culture.

I've got a textbox with the date expressed as a string:

// the CurrentThread's culture is de-DE
// My test browser is also set to de-DE
IFormatProvider culture = new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("de-DE",
true);
// en-US culture, what I'd ultimately like to see the DateTime in
IFormatProvider us_culture = new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-US",
true);
// correctly reads the textbox value (22.7.2010 into a datetime)
DateTime dt= DateTime.Parse(txtStartDate.Text, culture,
System.Globalization.DateTimeStyles.NoCurrentDateDefault);
// correctly produces a string 7/22/2010
string dt2 = dt.ToString(us_culture);

At this point I want a DateTime that's in en-US I've tried both:

DateTime dt3 = Convert.ToDateTime(dt2, us_culture);
DateTime dt3 = DateTime.Parse(dt2, us_culture);

But both produce de-DE DateTimes. My motivation in asking this question is the rest of the business logic is going to be calling dt2.toString() and will result in an incorrect date time string. I realize I could change toString() to be toString(us_culture) but I'd rather not change all of the rest of the business logic to accomodate this change.

Is there a way to get a DateTime in a culture other than the CurrentThread's culture?

Date Or DateTime Object To Be Independent Of Page Culture

Dec 28, 2010

Dim strTime as String = FomatDateForSave("28/12/2010")
Public Shared Function FormatDateForSave(ByVal strDate As String) As Date
FormatDateForSave = Date.ParseExact(strDate,'dd/MM/yyyy', System.Globalization.CultureInfo.InvariantCulture)
End Function

I am expecting strTime to be "12/28/2010" .... But its getting converted to "28/12/2010" The thing is when the operation is performed by FormatDateForSave ... it converts it to "12/28/2010" But when it is returned it is again converted to "12/28/2010"

I have set the Date for Page.Culture to be "dd/mm/yyyy" and want the value to be "mm/dd/yyyy" to be saved in DB.

DateTime creationTime = DateTime.Parse("16/02/2010 12:37:27", CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture("en-US"));
DateTime creationTime = DateTime.Parse("16/02/2010 12:37:27", CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture(CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.Name));

C# - DateTime.Parse, Latvian Culture Settings?

Dec 1, 2010

I am sending in a string in dd/MM/yyyy format, which is then being parsed into lv-LV culture as set per the web.config globalization setting.I am then comparing the date to DateTime.Now to see if it is in the past.The problem is, DateTime.Parse converts my string to dd.MM.yyyy format, but DateTime.Now has MM.dd.yyyy format, so the comparison always fails.Why would DateTime.Now be different to the output from DateTime.Parse, on the same thread culture?(Update) This is the code I am using:InputText contains input from a form in DD.MM.YYYY format

DateTime date = DateTime.Parse(InputText, CultureInfo.CurrentCulture);
// Check it's not in the past
this.IsValid = (date.CompareTo(DateTime.Now) > 0);

[DateTime.Now] in this context is in MM.DD.YYYY format using lv-LV cultureInfo
[date] is in DD.MM.YYYY format after the DateTime.Parse

MVC :: ModeState Not Valid Because Of Current Culture?

Apr 12, 2010

I am now building the NerdDinner tutorial from asp.net/mvc.

The problem is that when posting back a created model the ModelState is not valid. The model has two double values that are being set from jscript(to values like 44.2).

I checked the ModelState values and the value Culture is "ro-RO" (I am from Romania) so I guess it expects values like "44,2". How can I ignore the culture,or change the validation?

Localization :: Assign Culture To Current Thread When Http Is Stateless?

Feb 5, 2010

When I was localizing my web application I got one strange doubt.

In the first request i set current thread's current culture to user chosen culture. It worked fine for that particular request. But when i browsed for other page, server rendered content in default english culture. I think the reason meight be "http is stateless" means current request is served by a thread whose culture was set properly. Send request will be serverd another thread which does not about previous thread. So we should once again assign culture to this thread. Localization can be done by setting culture to a session variable.

So my question is what is the benifit that we get by setting culture to current thread. With setting to thread we can show the page in user desired language.

Web Forms :: TextBox With Current Datetime Won't Update DB?

Dec 27, 2010

If I use the following code, it pulls the current date from my database, I can then change the date (in the textbox), click update and the database is updated.

<asp:textbox id="UpdatedTextBox" Visible="true" runat="server" Text='<%# Bind("Updated")%>' />

I'm trying to get the textbox to automatically populate with the current date and then update the database when I click update.

If I use the command below, I get the current date (in the textbox), but date shows as blank in the database.

<asp:textbox id="UpdatedTextBox" Visible="true" runat="server" Text='<%# System.DateTime.Now.ToString()%>' />

How do I bind this so it updates my database?

AJAX :: How To Set Culture Just For CalendarExtender Irrespective Of Page Culture

Mar 1, 2010

I have a scenario where I am using CalendarExtender on a page with UICulture and Culture as "en-US".

But I want to show CalendarExtender in "de-DE" culture. I know that I can set up EnableScriptGlobalization="True" EnableScriptLocalization="true" for ScriptManager and CalendarExtender will show up as per culture defined for page. But this does not work for me because I can not change page level UICulture and Culture from "en-US" to "de-DE" ( If I do so, I face double value issue. e.g. double d = 12.34; is displayed as 12,34 on UI and then its unmanagable while editing values).

So coming back to my problem, Can I just change culture for CalendarExtender so that page culture is set to "en-US" and calender is shown in some different language? I know its not something straightforward, I might need to dig up source code.

How To Store DateTime Object With CultureInfo

Mar 2, 2011

Does the DateTime object stores the CultureInfo with it, or you need to use the Formatter to format the DateTime according to current culture ?

I have a class property that retuns a DateTime. Within that property I am setting the DateTime object with current culture information using CultureInfo object. Below is the code for class property I am using:

public DateTime PrintedQuoteDate {
get{
DateTime printQuoteDate = DateTime.Today;
// cInfo = CultureInfo object
return Convert.ToDateTime(printQuoteDate , cInfo);
}
}

So my question is when I will use the above property in my code, will it have the corrosponding culture information that I am setting in its get method, or I will have to use the same CONVERT code for formatting date time. The restriction here is that the Property should return only DateTime type.
