Help with WeekDay Enum

[Stuart Shay]

Hello All:

I have some old ASP Code where it use the WeekdayName Function

How Can I get the following values in C#

wday = 1; => Sunday
wday = 4; => Wednesday

I see VB.NET has the Microsoft.VisualBasic.DateAndTime.WeekdayName, but not
in C#

Thanks
Stuart

You can use:

System.DayOfWeek

Example:

System.DayOfWeek day = 0; // equals System.DayOfWeek.Sunday

MessageBox.Show(day.ToString()); // Outputs "Sunday"

int wday = 0;
DayOfWeek day = (DayOfWeek) Enum.Parse(typeof(DayOfWeek), wday.ToString());
lblWeekDay.Text = day.ToString();

Sunday is Displayed as the Label Text.

That's way more work than is necessary:

int wday = 0;
DayOfWeek day = (DayOfWeek) wday;
lblWeekDay.Text = day.ToString();

Of course, we could reduce it even further to :

DayOfWeek day = DayOfWeek.Sunday;
lblWeekDay.Text = day.ToString();
