Overloads
Parse(String, ParsePosition) |
Parse a date/time string according to the given parse position. |
Parse(String) |
Parses text from the beginning of the given string to produce a date. |
Parse(String, ParsePosition)
Parse a date/time string according to the given parse position.
[Android.Runtime.Register("parse", "(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/text/ParsePosition;)Ljava/util/Date;", "GetParse_Ljava_lang_String_Ljava_text_ParsePosition_Handler")]
public abstract Java.Util.Date? Parse (string source, Java.Text.ParsePosition pos);
[<Android.Runtime.Register("parse", "(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/text/ParsePosition;)Ljava/util/Date;", "GetParse_Ljava_lang_String_Ljava_text_ParsePosition_Handler")>]
abstract member Parse : string * Java.Text.ParsePosition -> Java.Util.Date
Parameters
- source
- String
The date/time string to be parsed
- pos
- ParsePosition
On input, the position at which to start parsing; on output, the position at which parsing terminated, or the start position if the parse failed.
Returns
A Date
, or null
if the input could not be parsed
- Attributes
Remarks
Parse a date/time string according to the given parse position. For example, a time text "07/10/96 4:5 PM, PDT"
will be parsed into a Date
that is equivalent to Date(837039900000L)
.
By default, parsing is lenient: If the input is not in the form used by this object's format method but can still be parsed as a date, then the parse succeeds. Clients may insist on strict adherence to the format by calling #setLenient(boolean) setLenient(false)
.
This parsing operation uses the #calendar
to produce a Date
. As a result, the calendar
's date-time fields and the TimeZone
value may have been overwritten, depending on subclass implementations. Any TimeZone
value that has previously been set by a call to #setTimeZone(java.util.TimeZone) setTimeZone
may need to be restored for further operations.
