ObexHeaderConverter.DateTimeFromIso8601ByteSeq Method

Converts a Byte array containing ASCII encoded text, containing a date/time value formatted in ISO8601 style into a DateTime instance.

[Visual Basic]
Public Shared Function DateTimeFromIso8601ByteSeq( _
ByVal bytes As Byte() _
) As Date

[C#]
public static DateTime DateTimeFromIso8601ByteSeq(
byte[] bytes
);

Parameters

bytes: The received Byte array containing the formatted Time string.

Return Value

Remarks

As discussed in the corresponding conversion method DateTimeAsIso8601ByteSeq the date time is formatted in text as YYYYMMDDTHHDDMMSS, with a final letter Z if the date and time are in UTC.

DateTime has three defined ‘kinds’ (DateTimeKind): Unspecified, Utc, and Local. Depending on whether the input is marked as UTC we mark the DateTime returned as Utc, and Local respectively. This of course applies only to framework version 2 and later.

Note, we allow the string to have a final null-termination byte.
