Namespace: System
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
Syntax
Public ReadOnly Property TotalSeconds As Double
public double TotalSeconds { get; }
Property Value
Type: System..::.Double
The total number of seconds represented by this instance.
Remarks
This property converts the value of this instance from ticks to seconds. This number might include whole and fractional seconds.
Examples
The following example instantiates a TimeSpan object and displays the value of its TotalSeconds property. It also displays the value of its milliseconds component, which forms the fractional part of the value of its TotalSeconds property.
Module Example
Public Sub Demo(ByVal outputBlock As System.Windows.Controls.TextBlock)
' Define an interval of 1 day, 15+ hours.
Dim interval As New TimeSpan(1, 15, 42, 45, 750)
outputBlock.Text += String.Format("Value of TimeSpan: {0}", interval) & vbCrLf
outputBlock.Text &= String.Format("{0:N5} seconds, as follows:", interval.TotalSeconds) & vbCrLf
outputBlock.Text += String.Format(" Seconds: {0,8:N0}", interval.Days * 24 * 60 * 60 + _
interval.Hours * 60 * 60 + _
interval.Minutes * 60 + _
interval.Seconds) & vbCrLf
outputBlock.Text &= String.Format(" Milliseconds: {0,8}", interval.Milliseconds) & vbCrLf
End Sub
End Module
' The example displays the following output:
' Value of TimeSpan: 1.15:42:45.7500000
' 142,965.75000 seconds, as follows:
' Seconds: 142,965
' Milliseconds: 750
using System;
