System.Globalization Namespace DateTimeFormatInfo Class
Sets or retrieves the string that separates the components of time; that is, the hour, minutes, and seconds.
[ VB ]
public Property TimeSeparator As String
[ C# ]
public string TimeSeparator {get; set;}
[ C++ ]
public: __property String* get_TimeSeparator ( );
public: __property void set_TimeSeparator ( String* );
[ JScript ]
function get TimeSeparator ( ) : String;
public function set TimeSeparator ( String );
The string that separates the components of time; that is, the hour, minutes, and seconds. The default for InvariantInfo is ":".
If the custom pattern includes the format pattern ":", DateTime.ToString displays the value of TimeSeparator in place of the ":" in the format pattern.
This example shows how you can create a DateTimeFormatInfo object for a given culture, to gain access to the TimeSeparator property for the specified culture.
First, you need to instantiate a CultureInfo object with the specified culture name, and then retrieve the CultureInfo.DateTimeFormat property.
This returns a DateTimeFormatInfo instance specific to the given culture, which you can then use to get to any DateTimeFormatInfo method or property, such as TimeSeparator.
