I haven't worked with the TimeSpan object before. So bare with me if
this seems like a newb question. But if I wanted to know how many
days from the current date until 2/4/2008. I have written this much
code so far.
DateTime startDate = new DateTime("2008-02-04");
DateTime curDate = DateTime.Now();
TimeSpan ts = startDate.Subtr act(curDate);
Now I get lost. I was expecting to find a Days property off of the
TimeSpan object. No such luck. Where am I going wrong?
Thanks,

Kelly,
The Days property should be accessible through the ts variable. It's
definitely there. What makes you think it is not?

I'm not sure - TimeSpan definitely does have a Days property, and
always has had. What happens when you try to use ts.Days?
I believe that the correct property is TimeSpan.TotalD ays

It depends on what the OP wants. If they just want the integral days
portion of the TimeSpan, Days is correct.

What I ended up doing was taking A ticks minus B ticks ... and then
dividing by the TimeSpan.TicksP erDay.
I'll fix this up tomorrow.
Wait. I just figured it out. Guess I was struck stupid today. I was
looking at the static side of TimeSpan and not an instance of
TimeSpan. Subtract 10 cool points. lol

Is it possible there is a bug with the System.TimeSpan object in .NET?
I am using it to track times and am seeing an unusual situation.
From what I understand, there are 1000 milliseconds in a second. I
have a test I ran using the TimeSpan object which when I use
TimeSpan.Milliseconds I got 658 but if I use TimeSpan.Seconds I get 5.
If it took 658 milliseconds that should be less than 1 second right?

Hello all,
I've been trying to determine the difference in minutes between two DateTime objects (startTime and endTime) in C# using the TimeSpan object (ts).

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
