cGetDateFromString method

DateTime? cGetDateFromString()

Converts a string representation of a date and time into a DateTime object.

Returns:

• A DateTime object if the parsing is successful.
• null if the parsing fails or an exception occurs.

// Example date and time string
String dateString = "2023-09-26 14:30:00";
// Attempt to parse the date string into a DateTime object
DateTime? dateTime = dateString.cGetDateFromString();
// Check if parsing was successful
if (dateTime != null) {
  print("Parsed DateTime: $dateTime");
} else {
  print("Failed to parse the string as DateTime.");
}

Implementation

DateTime? cGetDateFromString() {
  try {
    return DateTime.parse(this);
  } catch (e) {
    return null;
  }
}
