class NodaTime.Text.InstantPattern
Assembly: NodaTime
Inheritance: object → InstantPattern
Implemented Interfaces
Represents a pattern for parsing and formatting <see cref="T:NodaTime.Instant" /> values.
Properties
public static
InstantPattern
General
Gets the general pattern, which always uses an invariant culture. The general pattern represents
an instant as a UTC date/time in ISO-8601 style "uuuu-MM-ddTHH:mm:ss'Z'".
public static
InstantPattern
ExtendedIso
Gets an invariant instant pattern which is ISO-8601 compatible, providing up to 9 decimal places
of sub-second accuracy. (These digits are omitted when unnecessary.)
This corresponds to the text pattern "uuuu'-'MM'-'dd'T'HH':'mm':'ss;FFFFFFFFF'Z'".
public
string
PatternText
Gets the pattern text for this pattern, as supplied on creation.
public
Instant
TemplateValue
Gets the value used as a template for parsing: any field values unspecified
in the pattern are taken from the template.
public
int
TwoDigitYearMax
Maximum two-digit-year in the template to treat as the current century.
If the value parsed is higher than this, the result is adjusted to the previous century.
This value defaults to 30. To create a pattern with a different value, use <see cref="M:NodaTime.Text.InstantPattern.WithTwoDigitYearMax(System.Int32)" /> .
Methods
public
ParseResult<Instant>
Parse(string text)
Parses the given text value according to the rules of this pattern.
Returns The result of parsing, which may be successful or unsuccessful.
text

This method never throws an exception (barring a bug in Noda Time itself). Even errors such as
the argument being null are wrapped in a parse result.
public
string
Format(Instant value)
Formats the given instant as text according to the rules of this pattern.
Returns The instant formatted according to this pattern.
value
The instant to format.
public
System.Text.StringBuilder
AppendFormat(Instant value,
System.Text.StringBuilder builder)
Formats the given value as text according to the rules of this pattern,
appending to the given <see cref="T:System.Text.StringBuilder" /> .
Returns The builder passed in as <paramref name="builder" /> .
value
The value to format.
builder
The <c>StringBuilder</c> to append to.
public static
InstantPattern
Create(string patternText,
System.Globalization.CultureInfo cultureInfo)
Creates a pattern for the given pattern text and culture.
Returns A pattern for parsing and formatting instants.
patternText
Pattern text to create the pattern for
cultureInfo
The culture to use in the pattern
Remarks
See the user guide for the available pattern text options.
public static
InstantPattern
CreateWithCurrentCulture(string patternText)
Creates a pattern for the given pattern text in the current thread's current culture.
Returns A pattern for parsing and formatting instants.
patternText
Pattern text to create the pattern for
Remarks

or formatting values.
public static
InstantPattern
CreateWithInvariantCulture(string patternText)
Creates a pattern for the given pattern text in the invariant culture.
Returns A pattern for parsing and formatting instants.
patternText
Pattern text to create the pattern for
Remarks
See the user guide for the available pattern text options.
public
InstantPattern
WithCulture(System.Globalization.CultureInfo cultureInfo)
Creates a pattern for the same original pattern text as this pattern, but with the specified
culture.
Returns A new pattern with the given culture.
cultureInfo
The culture to use in the new pattern.
public
InstantPattern
WithTemplateValue(Instant newTemplateValue)
Creates a pattern like this one, but with the specified template value.
Returns A new pattern with the given template value.
newTemplateValue
The template value for the new pattern, used to fill in unspecified fields.
public
InstantPattern
WithTwoDigitYearMax(int twoDigitYearMax)
Creates a pattern like this one, but with a different <see cref="P:NodaTime.Text.InstantPattern.TwoDigitYearMax" /> value.
Returns A new pattern with the specified maximum two-digit-year.
