ManagementDateTimeConverter.ToDmtfDateTime(DateTime) Method

Definition

Converts a given DateTime to DMTF datetime format.

public:
 static System::String ^ ToDmtfDateTime(DateTime date);
public static string ToDmtfDateTime (DateTime date);
static member ToDmtfDateTime : DateTime -> string
Public Shared Function ToDmtfDateTime (date As DateTime) As String

Parameters

date
DateTime

A DateTime representing the datetime to be converted to DMTF datetime.

Returns

A string that represents the DMTF datetime for the given DateTime.

Examples

The following example converts a given DateTime to DMTF datetime format.

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;
    }
}

        'Converting System.TimeSpan to DMTF time interval format
        Dim ts As System.TimeSpan = _
            New System.TimeSpan(10, 12, 25, 32, 456)
        Dim dmtfTimeInt As String
        dmtfTimeInt = _
            ManagementDateTimeConverter.ToDmtfTimeInterval(ts)

        Return 0
    End Function
End Class

Remarks

The resulting DMTF datetime string is based on the UTC offset of the current time zone. The lowest precision in DMTF is microseconds; in DateTime, the lowest precision is Ticks, which are equivalent to 100 nanoseconds. During conversion, Ticks are converted to microseconds and rounded off to the nearest microsecond.
