This is workable, as I can format the TotalHours,TotalMinutes,TotalSeconds returned to a usable result. As I said earlier the result I am after here is 33:10:01 in this example. I cannot use (Get-Date) as it returns an hour from the next day if the total exceeds 24 hours.
I have now cobbled together a working script which demonstrates what I am trying to achieve; and just for good measure there is also a subtract function:
[Int]$h = [Int]$m = [Int]$s = 0
function Add ([String]$test) {
$temp = $test.Split(':')
$SCRIPT:h+= $temp[0]
$SCRIPT:m+= $temp[1]
$SCRIPT:s+= $temp[2]
if ($SCRIPT:s -gt 59) {
[Int]$min = $SCRIPT:s/60
[Int]$sec = $SCRIPT:s%60
$SCRIPT:m+= $min
$SCRIPT:s = $sec
}
if ($SCRIPT:m -gt 59) {
[Int]$hour = $SCRIPT:m/60
[Int]$min = $SCRIPT:m%60
$SCRIPT:h+= $hour
$SCRIPT:m = $min
}
}
function Subtract ([String]$test) {
$minus = $test.Split(':')
if (($SCRIPT:s - [Int]$minus[2]) -lt 0) {
$SCRIPT:s+= (60 - [Int]$minus[2])
[Int]$minus[1]+= 1
} else {
$SCRIPT:s = $SCRIPT:s - [Int]$minus[2]
}
if (($SCRIPT:m - [Int]$minus[1]) -lt 0) {
$SCRIPT:m+= (60 - [Int]$minus[1])
[Int]$minus[0]+= 1
} else {
$SCRIPT:m = $SCRIPT:m - [Int]$minus[1]
}
$SCRIPT:h = $SCRIPT:h - $minus[0]
}
Add '23:43:15'
Add '00:26:25'
Add '12:23:29'
$result = "{0:D3}:{1:D2}:{2:D2}" -f $h, $m, $s
Write-Host $result
if ($result -gt '10:45:08') { #No point trying if too large a value.
Subtract '10:45:08'
$result = "{0:D3}:{1:D2}:{2:D2}" -f $h, $m, $s
Write-Host $result
}
If there is a simpler way I would much appreciate it if one of you experts could please enlighten me.
