您编写的大多数软件都需要实现某种形式的日期函数,以返回当前日期和时间。日期是日常生活的重要组成部分,以至于不加思索就可以轻松地与他们合作。 VB.Net还提供了强大的日期算术工具,使日期操作变得容易。
日期数据类型包含日期值,时间值或日期和时间值。 Date的默认值为0001年1月1日的0:00:00(午夜)。等效的.NET数据类型为System.DateTime 。
DateTime结构表示时间的瞬间,通常表示为日期和时间
'Declaration
_
Public Structure DateTime _
Implements IComparable, IFormattable, IConvertible, ISerializable,
IComparable(Of DateTime), IEquatable(Of DateTime)
您还可以从DateAndTime类获取当前日期和时间。
DateAndTime模块包含在日期和时间操作中使用的过程和属性。
'Declaration
_
Public NotInheritable Class DateAndTime
Note: Both the DateTime structure and the DateAndTime module contain properties like Now and Today, so often beginners find it confusing. The DateAndTime class belongs to the Microsoft.VisualBasic namespace and the DateTime structure belongs to the System namespace. |

上面的方法列表并不详尽,请访问Microsoft文档以获取DateTime结构的方法和属性的完整列表。
您可以通过以下方式之一创建DateTime对象-
通过从任何重载的DateTime构造函数中调用DateTime构造函数。
通过为DateTime对象分配由属性或方法返回的日期和时间值。
通过解析日期和时间值的字符串表示形式。
通过调用DateTime结构的隐式默认构造函数。
以下示例演示了这一点-
Module Module1
Sub Main()
'DateTime constructor: parameters year, month, day, hour, min, sec
Dim date1 As New Date(2012, 12, 16, 12, 0, 0)
'initializes a new DateTime value
Dim date2 As Date = #12/16/2012 12:00:52 AM#
'using properties
Dim date3 As Date = Date.Now
Dim date4 As Date = Date.UtcNow
Dim date5 As Date = Date.Today
Console.WriteLine(date1)
Console.WriteLine(date2)
Console.WriteLine(date3)
Console.WriteLine(date4)
Console.WriteLine(date5)
Console.ReadKey()
End Sub
End Module
编译并执行上述代码后,将产生以下结果-
12/16/2012 12:00:00 PM
12/16/2012 12:00:52 PM
12/12/2012 10:22:50 PM
12/12/2012 12:00:00 PM
以下程序演示了如何在VB.Net中获取当前日期和时间-
当前时间-
Module dateNtime
Sub Main()
Console.Write("Current Time: ")
Console.WriteLine(Now.ToLongTimeString)
Console.ReadKey()
End Sub
End Module
编译并执行上述代码后,将产生以下结果-
Current Time: 11 :05 :32 AM
当前日期-
Module dateNtime
Sub Main()
Console.WriteLine("Current Date: ")
Dim dt As Date = Today
Console.WriteLine("Today is: {0}", dt)
Console.ReadKey()
End Sub
End Module
编译并执行上述代码后,将产生以下结果-
Today is: 12/11/2012 12:00:00 AM
Date字面量应包含在井号(##)中,并以M / d / yyyy格式指定,例如#12/16/2012#。否则,您的代码可能会根据运行应用程序的区域设置而改变。
例如,您将2012年2月6日指定为#2/6/2012#的Date字面量。对于使用mm / dd / yyyy格式的语言环境来说,这是正确的。但是,在使用dd / mm / yyyy格式的语言环境中,您的字面量将编译为2012年6月2日。如果在区域设置中使用另一种格式,例如yyyy / mm / dd,则该字面量将无效并导致编译器错误。
要将Date字面量转换为您的语言环境格式或自定义格式,请使用String类的Format函数,指定预定义或用户定义的日期格式。
下面的示例演示了这一点。
Module dateNtime
Sub Main()
Console.WriteLine("India Wins Freedom: ")
Dim independenceDay As New Date(1947, 8, 15, 0, 0, 0)
' Use format specifiers to control the date display.
Console.WriteLine(" Format 'd:' " & independenceDay.ToString("d"))
Console.WriteLine(" Format 'D:' " & independenceDay.ToString("D"))
Console.WriteLine(" Format 't:' " & independenceDay.ToString("t"))
Console.WriteLine(" Format 'T:' " & independenceDay.ToString("T"))
Console.WriteLine(" Format 'f:' " & independenceDay.ToString("f"))
Console.WriteLine(" Format 'F:' " & independenceDay.ToString("F"))
Console.WriteLine(" Format 'g:' " & independenceDay.ToString("g"))
Console.WriteLine(" Format 'G:' " & independenceDay.ToString("G"))
Console.WriteLine(" Format 'M:' " & independenceDay.ToString("M"))
Console.WriteLine(" Format 'R:' " & independenceDay.ToString("R"))
Console.WriteLine(" Format 'y:' " & independenceDay.ToString("y"))
Console.ReadKey()
End Sub
End Module
编译并执行上述代码后,将产生以下结果-
India Wins Freedom:
Format 'd:' 8/15/1947
Format 'D:' Friday, August 15, 1947
Format 't:' 12:00 AM
Format 'T:' 12:00:00 AM
Format 'f:' Friday, August 15, 1947 12:00 AM
Format 'F:' Friday, August 15, 1947 12:00:00 AM
Format 'g:' 8/15/1947 12:00 AM
Format 'G:' 8/15/1947 12:00:00 AM
Format 'M:' 8/15/1947 August 15
Format 'R:' Fri, 15 August 1947 00:00:00 GMT
Format 'y:' August, 1947
