c# - Get Date from DateTime without ToShortDateString

Question

I am searching for this for about 2 hours and I don't have any ideas anymore. The problem is I have a DateTime object and I need only the date part from it.

I tried

1. data.Date

2. create a new DateTime object like this

   var x = new DateTime(data.Year,data.Months,data.Day)

3. I tried like this

   DateTime.Parse(data.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd"))

NOTE: After getting the date part only, data needs to remain DateTime ( not string ), so I can not use ToShortDateString()

Answer 1

If you want some object, witch always return date in 2012-10-10 format from .ToString(), you can use this struct

struct Date
{
    private DateTime dateTime;
    public Date(DateTime dateTime)
    {
        this.dateTime = dateTime.Date;
    }

    public override string ToString()
    {
        return dateTime.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd");
    }
}
