[edit] C# DateTime.Today Property
The DateTime Now property simply returns the UTC date and time of the current time on the local computer. UTC time is often refered to as the Zulu time.
[edit] Syntax
DateTime Variable = DateTime.UtcNow;
[edit] Example
using System;
class Program
{
static void Main()
{
DateTime d1 = DateTime.UtcNow;
Console.WriteLine(d1.ToString());
Console.Read();
}
}
Output:
4/4/2007 2:20:18 PM
[edit] Example 2
Now that we know how to get the UTC time it is also good to know how to convert back to local time. Here is an example
using System;
class Program
{
static void Main()
{
DateTime d1 = DateTime.UtcNow;
Console.WriteLine(d1.ToString());
d1 = d1.ToLocalTime();
Console.WriteLine(d1.ToString());
Console.Read();
}
}
Output:
4/4/2007 9:12:44 AM
4/4/2007 1:12:44 PM
