Convert string to int error

Question

Hi everyone...

I have an emulator with windows mobile 6 and i have one aplication run in it.

I have a silly question, when i try convert a string to a int number, I have the following exception:

FormatException
in System.Int32.Parse(String s, NumberStyles style, IFormatProvider provider)
in System.Int32.Parse(String s, IFormatProvider provider)
in System.Convert.ToInt32(String value)

I am using these methods to convert, but i have the same error:

int i = Int32.Parse(data[2].ToString());

int j = Convert.ToInt32(data[2].ToString());

Anybody can help me please?

Answer 1

All I can think of is that the string is not in the correct format for conversion to int.

Can you check what the value of data[2].ToString() is?

Hi Prabhuk...

The problem was the value, not the type of object inside of data[2], but the value of the variable. Variable have the year on the local machine.

In my computer is 2010, but in my emulator (I check the regional definitions but I can not change)is only 10  :(

When I try construct an object of DateTime, I have the error.

Thanks for your help

Hi,

 

Did you set a breakpoint at it? Then watch the value of data[2].ToString()

Hi Jervazio,

Then main reason behind to get error. Then value of data[2].ToString() is not correct basically what happen when you are trying to convert any number value which is store in data[2] in string datatype then only you are able to parse the string value in to integer,

int value1 = int.Parse("10"); // Correct string for parsing string to integer

int value2 = int.Parse("10-12"); // wrong string for parsing string to integer

int value3 = int.Parse("10.1"); // wrong string for parsing string to integer

 

So make sure that what exactly value of data[2].ToString()

 

Hope it helps
