Examples

The following example illustrates subtraction that uses the Subtract(DateTimeOffset) method.

DateTimeOffset firstDate = new DateTimeOffset(2018, 10, 25, 18, 0, 0,
                                              new TimeSpan(-7, 0, 0));
DateTimeOffset secondDate = new DateTimeOffset(2018, 10, 25, 18, 0, 0,
                                               new TimeSpan(-5, 0, 0));
DateTimeOffset thirdDate = new DateTimeOffset(2018, 9, 28, 9, 0, 0,
                                              new TimeSpan(-7, 0, 0));
TimeSpan difference;

difference = firstDate.Subtract(secondDate);
Console.WriteLine($"({firstDate}) - ({secondDate}): {difference.Days} days, {difference.Hours}:{difference.Minutes:d2}");

difference = firstDate.Subtract(thirdDate);
Console.WriteLine($"({firstDate}) - ({thirdDate}): {difference.Days} days, {difference.Hours}:{difference.Minutes:d2}");

// The example produces the following output:
//    (10/25/2018 6:00:00 PM -07:00) - (10/25/2018 6:00:00 PM -05:00): 0 days, 2:00
//    (10/25/2018 6:00:00 PM -07:00) - (9/28/2018 9:00:00 AM -07:00): 27 days, 9:00
let firstDate = DateTimeOffset(2018, 10, 25, 18, 0, 0, TimeSpan(-7, 0, 0))
let secondDate = DateTimeOffset(2018, 10, 25, 18, 0, 0, TimeSpan(-5, 0, 0))
let thirdDate = DateTimeOffset(2018, 9, 28, 9, 0, 0, TimeSpan(-7, 0, 0))

let difference = firstDate.Subtract secondDate
printfn $"({firstDate}) - ({secondDate}): {difference.Days} days, {difference.Hours}:{difference.Minutes:d2}"

let difference = firstDate.Subtract thirdDate
printfn $"({firstDate}) - ({thirdDate}): {difference.Days} days, {difference.Hours}:{difference.Minutes:d2}"

// The example produces the following output:
//    (10/25/2018 6:00:00 PM -07:00) - (10/25/2018 6:00:00 PM -05:00): 0 days, 2:00
//    (10/25/2018 6:00:00 PM -07:00) - (9/28/2018 9:00:00 AM -07:00): 27 days, 9:00
Dim firstDate As New DateTimeOffset(#10/25/2018 6:00PM#, _
                                    New TimeSpan(-7, 0, 0))
Dim secondDate As New DateTimeOffset(#10/25/2018 6:00PM#, _
                                     New TimeSpan(-5, 0, 0))
Dim thirdDate As New DateTimeOffset(#9/28/2018 9:00AM#, _
                                    New TimeSpan(-7, 0, 0))
Dim difference As TimeSpan

difference = firstDate.Subtract(secondDate)
Console.WriteLine($"({firstDate}) - ({secondDate}): {difference.Days} days, {difference.Hours}:{difference.Minutes:d2}")

difference = firstDate.Subtract(thirdDate)
Console.WriteLine($"({firstDate}) - ({thirdDate}): {difference.Days} days, {difference.Hours}:{difference.Minutes:d2}")

' The example produces the following output:
'    (10/25/2018 6:00:00 PM -07:00) - (10/25/2018 6:00:00 PM -05:00): 0 days, 2:00
'    (10/25/2018 6:00:00 PM -07:00) - (9/28/2018 9:00:00 AM -07:00): 27 days, 9:00

Remarks

This method converts both DateTimeOffset objects to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) before calculating the time interval that separates them. This removes any effect that different offsets from UTC may have on the comparison.

Note

For languages that support custom operators, you can also perform date and time subtraction by using the subtraction operator. For details, see the Subtraction method.

Because neither the current DateTimeOffset object nor the value parameter represent the date and time in a specific time zone, the Subtract(DateTimeOffset) method does not consider a particular time zone's adjustment rules when it subtracts dates and times.

Source:
DateTimeOffset.cs

Subtracts a specified time interval from the current DateTimeOffset object.

public:
 DateTimeOffset Subtract(TimeSpan value);
public DateTimeOffset Subtract (TimeSpan value);
member this.Subtract : TimeSpan -> DateTimeOffset
Public Function Subtract (value As TimeSpan) As DateTimeOffset

Parameters

value
TimeSpan

The time interval to subtract.

Returns

An object that is equal to the date and time represented by the current DateTimeOffset object, minus the time interval represented by value.

Exceptions

The resulting DateTimeOffset value is less than DateTimeOffset.MinValue.

-or-

The resulting DateTimeOffset value is greater than DateTimeOffset.MaxValue.

Examples

The following example illustrates subtraction that uses the Subtract method.

DateTimeOffset offsetDate = new DateTimeOffset(2007, 12, 3, 11, 30, 0,
                               new TimeSpan(-8, 0, 0));
TimeSpan duration = new TimeSpan(7, 18, 0, 0);
Console.WriteLine(offsetDate.Subtract(duration).ToString());  // Displays 11/25/2007 5:30:00 PM -08:00
let offsetDate = DateTimeOffset(2007, 12, 3, 11, 30, 0, TimeSpan(-8, 0, 0))
let duration = TimeSpan(7, 18, 0, 0)
printfn $"{offsetDate.Subtract duration}"  // Displays 11/25/2007 5:30:00 PM -08:00
Dim offsetDate As New DateTimeOffset(#12/3/2007 11:30AM#, _
                               New TimeSpan(-8, 0, 0)) 
Dim duration As New TimeSpan(7, 18, 0, 0)
Console.WriteLine(offsetDate.Subtract(duration))    ' Displays 11/25/2007 5:30:00 PM -08:00

Remarks

You can use the Subtract method to subtract more than one kind of time interval (days, hours, minutes, seconds, or milliseconds) in a single operation. Its behavior is identical to the Subtraction(DateTimeOffset, TimeSpan) method, which defines the subtraction operator. The DateTimeOffset structure also supports specialized addition methods (such as AddDays, AddHours, and AddMinutes) that allow you to perform subtraction by assigning a negative value to the method parameter.

Note

This method returns a new DateTimeOffset object. It does not modify the value of the current object by subtracting value from its date and time.

The Subtract method does not affect the value of the DateTimeOffset object's Offset property. The returned DateTimeOffset object has the same offset as the original object.

Because the current DateTimeOffset object does not represent the date and time in a specific time zone, the Subtract(TimeSpan) method does not consider a particular time zone's adjustment rules when it performs the subtraction.
