TimeToStr

Convert a TDateTime time to a string using a predefined format.

function TimeToStr(

Time: TDateTime

):string; function TimeToStr(

Time: TDateTime;

const FormatSettings: TFormatSettings

):string;

Description

TimeToStr converts the time in Time to a string. It uses the LongTimeFormat variable to see what formatting needs to be applied. It is therefor entirely equivalent to a FormatDateTime('tt',Time) call.

Note that on unix systems, the localization support must be enabled explicitly, see Localization.

Errors

None.
