I am successfuly creating to COleDateTimes, and then minusing them to create a COleDateTimeSpan. For some reason calling the GetTotalSeconds() method has suddenly started returning a huge number, which appears to be the number of seconds PLUS 10281600. I am confident this was working previously.
Here is the code I am using:
m_trace.Trace(_T(" Current time: ")+COleDateTime::GetCurrentTime().Format(_T("%H:%M:%S")));
m_trace.Trace(_T(" Time to compare: ")+vI->m_codt_lastUpdated.Format(_T("%H:%M:%S")));
COleDateTimeSpan cdts = COleDateTime::GetCurrentTime() - vI->m_codt_lastUpdated;
m_trace.Trace(_T(" Comparison result formatted: ")+cdts.Format(_T("%H:%M:%S")));
int n = (COleDateTime::GetCurrentTime() - vI->m_codt_lastUpdated).GetTotalSeconds();
CString strNumber;
strNumber.Format(_T(" Comprarison result in seconds: %d"),n);
m_trace.Trace(strNumber);
m_trace.Trace() is my tracing method. What is strange is that running Format() shows that there is no problem with the actual value the COleDateTimeSpan is holding, as can be seen by the trace result:
Current time: 11:13:53
Time to compare: 11:07:04
Comparison result formatted: 00:06:49
Comprarison result in seconds: 10282009
Don't quite know how to handle this... Any help would be greatly appreciated.
