'Declaration Public Overloads Function CompareTo( _ ByVal other As TdTimeWithTimeZone _ ) As Integer
'Usage Dim instance As TdTimeWithTimeZone Dim other As TdTimeWithTimeZone Dim value As Integer value = instance.CompareTo(other)
public int CompareTo( TdTimeWithTimeZone other )
public: int CompareTo( TdTimeWithTimeZone other )
The integer returned when this instance is compared to other indicates the following:
| Return Value | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Less than Zero |
This instance is less than other. -or- This instance is TdTimeWithTimeZone.Null. |
| Zero |
This instance is equal to other. -or- This instance is Null and value is Null. |
| Greater than Zero |
This instance is greater than other. -or- other is Null. |
When a comparison is performed between TdTimeWithTimeZone values, the UTC offset is taken into account. The UTC offset is subtracted from the time which results in the UTC Time. It is possible that a value can roll into the next or previous day. If this should occur only the time component is considered in the comparison. The following table shows the result of several comparisons between TdTimeWithTimeZone values:
| Comparison | Result |
|---|---|
| "12:21:00+01:01" compare to "09:11:00-02:10" | 0 -- both values are equal. |
| "20:21:00-04:00" compare to "09:11:00+02:10" | -1 -- the left operand is less than the right. |
| "01:54:00+03:00" compare to "19:11:00-01:00" | 1 -- the left operand is greater than the right. |
