Solution for my bad dates

Posted on by

Following up my previous post “I have bad dates“, here’s my solution. I may have to tweak this some at the end of the year but this seems to be working for now.

//
public static DateTime wsGetDate(string badSabreDate, DateTime srcDT)
{
    // force the bad sabre date into a leap year
    var leapYear = "2000-" + badSabreDate;
 
    var year = srcDT.Year;
    DateTime dt = DateTime.Now.AddYears(-1);
    if (DateTime.TryParse(leapYear, out dt))
    {
	if (dt.Month < srcDT.Month)
	{
	    // parsed month is less than srcDT, increment my year
	    year++;
	}
 
	return new DateTime(year, dt.Month, dt.Day, dt.Hour, dt.Minute, dt.Second);
    }
 
    var msg2 = string.Format("Can't parse {0} into a valid DateTime, {1}", badSabreDate, leapYear);
    throw new ApplicationException(msg2);
}
//

And here’s a piece of the car segment parsing code that calls the new method:

    string PU = SabreWS.wsString(car.VehRentalCore.LocationDetails.LocationCode);
    tmpForeignSts = AirportLookupCache.GetForeignStatus(PU);
    ForeignSts = tmpForeignSts > ForeignSts ? tmpForeignSts : ForeignSts;
 
    DateTime PUDT = wsGetDate(car.VehRentalCore.PickUpDateTime, DateTime.Now);

    string RT = "";

    ForeignSts = tmpForeignSts > ForeignSts ? tmpForeignSts : ForeignSts;
 
    DateTime RTDT = PUDT;
    try
    {
	RTDT = wsGetDate(car.VehRentalCore.ReturnDateTime, PUDT);
    }
    catch (Exception a)
    {
	a.Message.ToString();
	Log.Error(car.VehRentalCore.ReturnDateTime + " --> error parsing this as the Return DateTime, forcing to PUDT");
    }
