DateTime.ToLongTimeString() Method in C#

This method is used to convert the value of the current DateTime object to its equivalent long time string representation.

Syntax: public string ToLongTimeString ();

Return Value: This method returns a string that contains the long time string representation of the current DateTime object.

Below programs illustrate the use of DateTime.ToLongTimeString() Method:

Example 1:

// C# program to demonstrate the 
// DateTime.ToLongTimeString() 
// Method 
using System; 
using System.Globalization; 
  
class GFG { 
  
    // Main Method 
    public static void Main() 
    { 
  
        // creating object of DateTime 
        DateTime date = new DateTime(2011, 1, 
                                1, 4, 0, 15); 
  
        // Converting the value of the  
        // current DateTime object to  
        // its equivalent long time  
        // string representation. 
        // using ToLongTimeString() method; 
        string value = date.ToLongTimeString(); 
  
        // Display the time 
        Console.WriteLine("String representation of"+ 
                              " time is {0}", value); 
    } 
} 

Output:

String representation of time is 04:00:15

Example 2:

// C# program to demonstrate the 
// DateTime.ToLongTimeString() 
// Method 
using System; 
using System.Globalization; 
  
class GFG { 
  
    // Main Method 
    public static void Main() 
    { 
  
        // creating object of DateTime 
        DateTime date = DateTime.Now; 
  
        // Converting the value of the 
        // current DateTime object to  
        // its equivalent long time  
        // string representation. 
        // using ToLongTimeString() method; 
        string value = date.ToLongTimeString(); 
  
        // Display the time 
        Console.WriteLine("String representation "+ 
                          "of time is {0}", value); 
    } 
} 

Output:

String representation of time is 05:30:08
