Microsoft .NET Framework method ToString() is culture unsafe
I’ve found out that the output of ToString() method depends on Current Culture and regional settings for that culture. So the following c#.NET code will return different strings according to the current culture.
DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.fff");The output will be the following
2007-06-25 12:54:15.005
if current culture is “(en-EN)”
The output will be something like
2007-06-25 12.54.15.005
if current culture is “(it-IT)”
To avoid differences and to get exactly the same output as specified in format string you have to use expression
DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.fff",CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);
what the meaning of overwrite method tostrig in class and how could i use it in my class ?
thnx
