%SubTimesMono function


Function
The function deducts absolute time TimeB from absolute time TimeA. A result is value of Relative time type.

Declaration
REAL %SubTimesMono(
   TIME in TimeA,
   TIME in TimeB,
 )

Parameters
TimeA Absolute time.
TimeB Absolute time.

Description

The function %SubTimesMono deducts one absolute time from another one. The result will be influenced by the fact if the time offset was or was not in this interval. For example, in Slovakia the difference between 4:00 and 1:00 a.m. can be two hours (advance to summer time), three hours or four hours (advance to winter time).
