Remarks
This method converts the year
parameter to a four-digit year representation using the TwoDigitYearMax property. The return value is the upper boundary of a 100-year range that allows a two-digit year to be properly translated to a four-digit year. For example, if the 100-year range is from 1930 through 2029, then a two-digit value of 30 is interpreted as 1930 while a two-digit value of 29 is interpreted as 2029.
ToFourDigitYear supports either a two-digit year or a four-digit year. Passing a two-digit year value (less than 100) causes the method to convert the value to a four-digit value according to the TwoDigitYearMax value representing the appropriate century. If the application supplies a four-digit year value that is within the supported calendar range to ToFourDigitYear, the method returns the actual input value. If the application supplies a four-digit value that is outside the supported calendar range, or if it supplies a negative value, the method throws an exception.
