c# - How to return DateTime.Today as a FieldNullValue in FileHelpers -
i'm trying set fieldnullvalue
datetime
variable in filehelpers
class today value (so if when read .csv there no entry, defaults today's date). code i've tried is:
[fieldoptional] [fieldnullvalue(datetime.today)] public datetime date;
however error
"error 1 attribute argument must constant expression, typeof expression or array creation expression of attribute parameter type".
please can explain i'm doing wrong?
the obvious approach
[fieldoptional] [fieldnullvalue(typeof(datetime), datetime.today.tostring("m-dd-yyyy"))] public datetime date;
but seems fieldnullvalueattribute unable evaluate expressions case datetime.today.tostring() , way go hardcode fixed date string (not want in our code):
[fieldoptional] [fieldnullvalue(typeof(datetime), "5/15/2015")] public datetime date;
