I'm afraid I changed my mind about my approach, see my other reply to you.

Is it possible to replace every non - numerical character in the string to 1 special character you use for delimeting? then TryParse the string with that format to a date.

yes, that seems the best so far; provided:
- you choose a special character other than ':' and '/'
- you don't need AM/PM nor month names
public override void Test(int arg) {
test("2010.04.30.13.45.33", "yyyy.MM.dd.HH.mm.ss");
test("2010.04.30.13.4.3", "yyyy.MM.dd.HH.m.s");
test("2010.4.2.3.4.3", "yyyy.M.d.H.m.s");
}
private void test(string data, string format) {
DateTime dt;
bool OK=DateTime.TryParseExact(data, format, null, DateTimeStyles.None, out dt);
log("data="+data.PadRight(20)+"format="+format.PadRight(20)+" OK="+OK+" dt="+dt.ToString());
}
yields
data=2010.04.30.13.45.33 format=yyyy.MM.dd.HH.mm.ss OK=True dt=30-Apr-2010 13:45:33
data=2010.04.30.13.4.3 format=yyyy.MM.dd.HH.m.s OK=True dt=30-Apr-2010 13:04:03
data=2010.4.2.3.4.3 format=yyyy.M.d.H.m.s OK=True dt=02-Apr-2010 3:04:03

Basically what I was saying "replace the delimiter characters with appropriate separators for the part". I just didn't understand the need to support multiple formats.

I would just use a Regular Expression Replace to standardize the string:
outdate = System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Replace
(
indate
,
@"(?ix)(?:(?:DH\#(?'Year'\d\d\d\d)-(?'Month'\d\d)-(?'Day'\d\d)-(?'Hour'\d\d):(?'Minute'\d\d):(?'Second'\d\d))|
(?:\#(?'Month'\d\d)\#(?'Year'\d\d\d\d)\#(?'Day'\d\d)\#(?'Hour'\d\d)\#(?'Minute'\d\d)\#(?'Second'\d\d)\#)|
(?:DT(?'Day'\d\d)(?'Month'\d\d)(?'Year'\d\d\d\d)-(?'Hour'\d\d)(?'Minute'\d\d)(?'Second'\d\d)))"
,
@"${Year}-${Month}-${Day}-${Hour}:${Minute}:${Second}"
) ;
and only use one parse format.

Hi Folks,
I currently have an issue where I'm trying to write some code to allow me to return an object from a web service. When this object is based on a Struct, all's good. However, when I replace the Struct with a [Serializable]Class, compile, and run the service, on invoking the method which is to return the class object, I receive the below error:
======================================================================================================
Server Error in '/' Application.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This type of page is not served.
Description: The type of page you have requested is not served because it has been explicitly forbidden. The extension '.asp' may be incorrect. Please review the URL below and make sure that it is spelled correctly.
Requested URL: /default.asp
======================================================================================================
The reason I'd like to move from using a Struct to a Class is this would allow me to take advantage of interfaces and generics, to move the code which currently populates the Struct's properties from a DbDataReader's values into a delegate function, which can take a reader and a list of each field's type, and convert each record to an instance of the Struct.
Thanks in advance.

The type of object has nothing to do with your problem. Basically, you have something trying to serve up default.asp and this extension has not been allowed by your web server. I suspect that you should actually have default.aspx in there.

Hi guys,
does anyone know where i can get a list of mssql error codes. i need to enumerate the errors and treat anyone specifically. For ex: if it generates a unique key violation or foreign key violation, i could work on that.
Thanx.

I've had to do that, but I handle only the ones I've actually encountered, not all of them.

Hi Experts,
I am having a datatable object which is getting populated dynamically. My requirement is that i need to check whether the datatable contains any column with the name of "recordid". I have achieved this by doing the following
m_dataTable.Columns.Contains("recordid")
But my problem is that the column names might not come as "recordid" but might contain special characters. So my column name might be any of (but not restricted to) the following
1. Record Id
2. RECORD ID
3. Record_Id
4. Record-Id
I have a solution of passing each string to a method which is posted on this link but this approach will hamper performance.
Can anyone please help?
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Samar

i think you should filter it, i mean when you will filter it you should look for your special character if you find it then replace it with space or null.
Ex:
recored_id => recordid
EASY COME EASY GO
|
|
|
|
|
Yes that is a solution i have but i think this is hit performance. Also maintanence wise also it will be a overhead.

Hi Jinal i have this solution with me but this is implemented on 1 string and not on a collection right? For the above to work I would need to loop through the collection and then check. I need something which can be applied directly on the collection without looping.
Regards,
Samar
|
|
|
|
|
Sorry dear.
For collection you have to use looping.

As Jinal suggest, use a regular expression.
But I would use a regex to match the whole string you want:
Regex regex = new Regex("(Record.ID)|(RecordID)",
RegexOptions.IgnoreCase
| RegexOptions.CultureInvariant
| RegexOptions.IgnorePatternWhitespace
| RegexOptions.Compiled
);
string result = regex.Replace(InputText,"");This would remove any text containing "record" followed by "id" or any character then "id" in any combination of upper or lower case.

I'm getting a "Cross-thread operation not valid" error when I call Refresh() on a custom .NET Marquee control. This control used to be working in prior .NET projects and I'm trying to get it going again, eventually with hopes of posting as an article. It was really a great Marquee control in that it could display both text and graphics and could run in any direction, etc. I've included the full source to the control and to the demo form I'm trying to test it with. To help resolve the problem and for anyone else that might benefit from the control. I just can't figure out why I'm calling the
controls.Refresh() method from a cross thread. If anyone can shed some light on this, it would be greatly appreciated.

To add to Abhinavs reply, a couple of things:
1) When you post code, don't post the whole project - just the relevant portion. A code fragment makes it a lot more likely that your code will be read, (and responded to with relevant details) than posting the whole file. That just makes it tiresome to get to the "Reply" button if anyone wants to.
2) When you post a code fragment, use the "code block" widget, or suuround it with <pre>...</pre> tags to preserve the formatting - it does a much neater job than the dogs dinner you served up!

That's your problem. The System.Timers.Timer raises events on a ThreadPool thread unless you set it's Synchronizing Object property.
