有效地将大于59（秒）的值转换为DateTime

Question

I am getting 'time played' values which come as an integer in the amount of seconds.

Providing there is less than 60 seconds to be added, it's ofcourse easily done.

However, a lot of the values are more than 59 seconds and therefore cannot easily be converted into a DateTime.

An example of a value would be: 159 , which means that the 'time played' is 2 minutes and 39 seconds.

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

A "number of seconds" shouldn't be stored in a DateTime in the first place. You should use TimeSpan , which makes it easy:

TimeSpan ts = TimeSpan.FromSeconds(159);

You can add a duration of time to any DateTime , of course, but that's a different matter.

(You might also want to look into my Noda Time library if you're doing any significant amount of work with dates and times... the BCL provision is somewhat underwhelming.)

Answer 2

I think you want to use a TimeSpan not a DateTime . Specifically TimeSpan.FromSeconds() .

Answer 3

您想要的是一个TimeSpan结构。
