I want to call a method at a particular time and after that certain time of limit it will always be open.

Example:

RecentTime= 6/9/2015 AM 12:00:00

ExactTime when function will start working will be 6/10/2015 AM 10:30

Now I want like

C#

if(RecentTime >= ExactTime)
{
//Some Method
}

Thanks

What's your problem? You have the two datetimes, you compare them in your code already. If you want to compare times only then I don't understand why the date parts are different.

Q.can we add time in date?

Example:
Date=6/10/2015+10:30 AM

DateTime.Equals Method[^]
DateTime.GreaterThan Operator [^]
DateTime.GreaterThanOrEqual Operator[^]
DateTime.LessThan Operator [^]
DateTime.LessThanOrEqual Operator [^]

Solution 1

Yes:

C#

DateTime recentTime = new DateTime(2015, 9, 6);
DateTime exactTime = recentTime.AddHours(10).AddMinutes(30);
if (DateTime.Now >= exactTime)
   {
   ...
   }

Or

C#

DateTime recentTime = new DateTime(2015, 9, 6);
DateTime exactTime = recentTime.AddMinutes(630);
if (DateTime.Now >= exactTime)
   {
   ...
   }

It wil be better if i use Timespan

DateTime recentTime = DateTime.Now;
TimeSpan timespan = new TimeSpan(10, 30, 00);
DateTime Exdt = recentTime.Date.Add(timespan);
if(DateTime.Now>Exdt )
{

}

Btw Thanks.
