Question

ive have type casting issue and i need help as soon as possible :D, now the issue is ive methods to check nullable values for datetime and int types… but im getting type cast error…

method :

    public static DateTime? ToNullableDateTime(string stringValue)
    {
        DateTime dateValue;
        if (DateTime.TryParse(stringValue, out dateValue)) { return dateValue; } 
     else {     return DateTime.MinValue; }
    }

using the method its in my object class :

 Objects<DateTime?>.ToNullableDateTime(((Label)gvRow.FindControl("lblCommitmentDate")).Text);

Error :

Cannot implicitly convert type ‘System.DateTime?’ to ‘System.DateTime’. An explicit conversion exists (are you missing a cast?)

Answer 1

You’re defining a return type of DateTime? and trying to return a DateTime.
