130
1aaf88d2 131\func{wxString}{Format}{\param{const wxChar * }{format = wxDefaultTimeSpanFormat}}
df05cdc5
VZ
132
133Returns the string containing the formatted representation of the time span.
134The following format specifiers are allowed after \%:
135
136\twocolwidtha{5cm}%
137\begin{twocollist}\itemsep=0pt
138\twocolitem{H}{number of {\bf H}ours}
139\twocolitem{M}{number of {\bf M}inutes}
140\twocolitem{S}{number of {\bf S}econds}
141\twocolitem{l}{number of mi{\bf l}liseconds}
142\twocolitem{D}{number of {\bf D}ays}
143\twocolitem{E}{number of w{\bf E}eks}
144\twocolitem{\%}{the percent character}
145\end{twocollist}
146
147Note that, for example, the number of hours in the description above is not
148well defined: it can be either the total number of hours (for example, for a
149time span of $50$ hours this would be $50$) or just the hour part of the time
150span, which would be $2$ in this case as $50$ hours is equal to $2$ days and
151$2$ hours.
152
153wxTimeSpan resolves this ambiguity in the following way: if there had been,
154indeed, the {\tt \%D} format specified preceding the {\tt \%H}, then it is
155interpreted as $2$. Otherwise, it is $50$.
156
157The same applies to all other format specifiers: if they follow a specifier of
158larger unit, only the rest part is taken, otherwise the full value is used.
