我正在尝试解析类似于国际日期时间字符串:
24-okt-08 21:09:06 CEST
到目前为止，我已经有了类似以下的东西：
CultureInfo culture = CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture("nl-BE");
DateTime dt = DateTime.ParseExact("24-okt-08 21:09:06 CEST",
"dd-MMM-yy HH:mm:ss ...", culture);
问题是在格式字符串中，应该用什么来表示“...”? 查看自定义日期和时间格式字符串的MSDN页面似乎没有列出用于解析PST/CEST/GMT/UTC形式的时区的格式字符串。
据我所知，时区缩写是不被识别的。但是，如果您用时区偏移量来代替缩写，则可以解决问题。例如：
DateTime dt1 = DateTime.ParseExact("24-okt-08 21:09:06 CEST".Replace("CEST", "+2"), "dd-MMM-yy HH:mm:ss z", culture);
DateTime dt2 = DateTime.ParseExact("24-okt-08 21:09:06 CEST".Replace("CEST", "+02"), "dd-MMM-yy HH:mm:ss zz", culture);
DateTime dt3 = DateTime.ParseExact("24-okt-08 21:09:06 CEST".Replace("CEST", "+02:00"), "dd-MMM-yy HH:mm:ss zzz", culture);
简单的回答是，你无法做到。
原因在于：
世界时区有一个确定性的数据库，可以从IANA这里获取。
问题在于，3个或4个字母的缩写与IANA时区存在一对多的关联。例如，"AMT"的含义会因为文化、所处的世界地区以及应用场景的不同而不同。
AMT "Armenia Time" Asia UTC + 4 hours
AMT "Amazon Time" South America UTC - 4 hours
如果你真的想解决这个问题，我建议使用Noda Time来表示你的Instance。您将需要编写一些代码将缩写转换为标准的IANA时区。
我们不能为您做到这一点，这取决于您的应用程序上下文。
另一个好例子是"CST"。
CST "China Standard Time" Asia UTC + 8 hours
CST "Central Standard Time" Central America UTC - 6 hours
CST "Cuba Standard Time" Caribbean UTC - 5 hours
CST "Central Standard Time" North America UTC - 6 hours
en-US。 - Matt Johnson-Pinten-US，即使你的时区是 UTC-5，我们也可以推断出 CST 对你来说意味着“北美中部标准时间 UTC-6”。当然，对于一个应用程序来说适合的可能不适合另一个应用程序。抽象地说，就像我的答案所述，你无法确定。有了足够的上下文，其中一部分将是文化，我们就可以知道。 - Jodrell如果您决定采用搜索和替换的方法（就像我一样），这是缩写词典。
