Converts a given DMTF datetime to DateTime. The returned DateTime will be in the current time zone of the system.

public:
 static DateTime ToDateTime(System::String ^ dmtfDate);

public static DateTime ToDateTime (string dmtfDate);

static member ToDateTime : string -> DateTime

Public Shared Function ToDateTime (dmtfDate As String) As DateTime

Parameters

dmtfDate: String

A string representing the datetime in DMTF format.

Returns

DateTime

A DateTime that represents the given DMTF datetime.

Examples

The following example converts a DMTF datetime string into a DateTime.

using System;
using System.Management;

// The sample below demonstrates the various conversions
// that can be done using ManagementDateTimeConverter class
class Sample_ManagementDateTimeConverterClass
{
    public static int Main(string[] args)
    {
        string dmtfDate = "20020408141835.999999-420";
        string dmtfTimeInterval = "00000010122532:123456:000";

        // Converting DMTF datetime to System.DateTime
        DateTime dt =
            ManagementDateTimeConverter.ToDateTime(dmtfDate);

        // Converting System.DateTime to DMTF datetime
        string dmtfDateTime =
            ManagementDateTimeConverter.ToDmtfDateTime(DateTime.Now);

        // Converting DMTF time interval to System.TimeSpan
        System.TimeSpan tsRet =
            ManagementDateTimeConverter.ToTimeSpan(dmtfTimeInterval);

        //Converting System.TimeSpan to DMTF time interval format
        System.TimeSpan ts =
            new System.TimeSpan(10,12,25,32,456);
        string dmtfTimeInt  =
            ManagementDateTimeConverter.ToDmtfTimeInterval(ts);

        return 0;
    }
}

        Dim dmtfTimeInt As String
        dmtfTimeInt = _
            ManagementDateTimeConverter.ToDmtfTimeInterval(ts)

        Return 0
    End Function
End Class

Remarks

A DMTF datetime string has an UTC offset, which this datetime string represents. During conversion to DateTime, the UTC offset is used to convert the date to the current time zone. According to DMTF format, a particular field can be represented by the character '*'. This will be converted to the minimum value of this field that can be represented in DateTime.
