Inheritance

Inherited Members
Namespace: NodaTime
Assembly: NodaTime.dll
Syntax
[Serializable]
public sealed class AmbiguousTimeException : ArgumentOutOfRangeException, _Exception, ISerializable
Remarks
This occurs for transitions where the clock goes backward (usually by an hour). For example, suppose the time zone goes backward at 2am, so the second after 01:59:59 becomes 01:00:00. In that case, times such as 01:30:00 occur twice.
This exception is used to indicate such problems, as they're usually not the same as other System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException causes, such as entering "15" for a month number.
In theory this isn't calendar-specific; the local value will be ambiguous in this time zone regardless of the calendar used. However, this exception is always created in conjunction with a specific calendar, which leads to a more natural way of examining its information and constructing an error message.
Constructors
AmbiguousTimeException(ZonedDateTime, ZonedDateTime)
Declaration
public AmbiguousTimeException(ZonedDateTime earlierMapping, ZonedDateTime laterMapping)
Parameters
Type | Name | Description |
---|---|---|
ZonedDateTime | earlierMapping | The earlier possible mapping |
ZonedDateTime | laterMapping | The later possible mapping |
Remarks
User code is unlikely to need to deliberately call this constructor except possibly for testing.
The two mappings must have the same local time and time zone.
