Vista - GetDurationFormat/StrFromTimeInterval equivalent

05-03-2009

Hi,

Before writing out my own (buggy) function,

I would like to know if there is a .NET built-in function to display
a formatted/localized time duration?

ex.:
- 338 h 45 m 12 s
- 1 min 14 sec
- 3 days 4 hours

Thanks!

Try using System.TimeSpan

like this:
TimeSpan tm;
DateTime date1 =newDateTime(2009, 4, 30, 6, 32, 34);
DateTime date2 =newDateTime(2009, 5, 5, 3, 4, 38);
tm = date2 - date1;
Console.WriteLine("Day:{0} - Hour:{1} - Minute: {2} - Second:{3}", tm.Days, tm.Hours, tm.Minutes, tm.Seconds);
