Check whether two datetimes are only a number of hours apart
Source position: dateutil.inc line 247
function WithinPastHours( |
const ANow: TDateTime; |
const AThen: TDateTime; |
const AHours: Int64 |
):Boolean; |
ANow |
|
First moment in time |
AThen |
|
Second moment in time |
AHours |
|
Number of hours to check |
True if ANow and Athen are only AHours apart, false otherwise
WithinPastHours compares the timestamps ANow and AThen and returns True if the difference between them is at most AHours hours apart, or False if they are further apart.
| Remark: | Since this function uses the HoursBetween function to calculate the difference in Hours, this means that fractional hours do not count, and the fractional part is simply dropped, so for two dates actually 2 and a half hours apart, the result will also be True |
