Question

I have to split the comma – separated string in c# and needs to save it in two variables. The C# function is as follows :

public int InsertLogDetails(string RunIDStartTime, int Distribution_ID, List<string> additions, List<string> removals, bool status, string ErrorMessage)
{
    int Run_ID=0;
    DateTime StartTime=DateTime.Now;
    //Needs to split RunIDStartTime and needs to save it in Run_ID and StartTime
}

The RunIDStartTime holds the value of Run_ID ans StartTime.(Eg: 5,Jan 23 2013 9:31AM)

Anybody please helpout. Thanks in advance.

Here is a working answer and you do not need to do .ToArray because Split already returns an array.

var RunIDStartTime = "5,Jan 23 2013 9:31AM";
var listSplit = RunIDStartTime.Split(','); 
var id = int.Parse(listSplit[0]);
var dateTime = DateTime.Parse(listSplit[1]);

returns id = 5 and date = Jan 23 2013 9:31AM
