How can I change only the time in my DateTime variable "s"?
DateTime s = some datetime;
You can assign an initial value to a new DateTime value in many different ways:
Extension method DateTime
public static DateTime ChangeTime(this DateTime dateTime, int hours, int minutes, int seconds = default, int milliseconds = default)
{
return new DateTime(dateTime.Year, dateTime.Month, dateTime.Day, hours, minutes, seconds, milliseconds, dateTime.Kind);
}
then using ChangeTime:
DateTime datetime = DateTime.Now; //Your DateTime
datetime = datetime.ChangeTime(12, 20, 10);
using the Add methods
DateTime datetime = DateTime.Now; //Your DateTime
datetime = datetime.Date.AddHours(12).AddMinutes(20).AddSeconds(10);
using the Timespan
DateTime datetime = DateTime.Now; //Your DateTime
datetime = datetime.Date.Add(new TimeSpan(12, 20, 10));
using initial value
DateTime datetime = DateTime.Now;
datetime = new DateTime(datetime.Year, datetime.Month, datetime.Day, 12, 20, 10);
In fact, you can't change the time once it's created. But you can create it easily with many constructors: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.datetime.-ctor?view=netframework-4.7.2
For example, if you want to create a DateTime changing Seconds, you can just do this:
DateTime now = DateTime.Now;
DateTime secondschanged = new DateTime(now.Year, now.Month, now.Day, now.Hour, now.Minute, yourseconds);
To set end of a day:
date = new DateTime(date.Year, date.Month, date.Day, 23, 59, 59);
