Adds two time spans, storing the result (an exact number of seconds) in another time span object.

Compares two time spans to determine if they are equal or if one represents fewer seconds than the other.

Copies data from one time span object to another.

Releases and destroys a time span object.

Calculates the exact difference in seconds between time span objects and stores the result in the provided ASTimeSpan object. If timeSpan2 is less than timeSpan1, the result is negative.

Creates a new time span object containing the same data as an existing time span object. It raises an exception if there is not enough memory.

Gets the number of seconds from a time span object.

Negates the time span value of a time span object.

Creates a time span object. It raises an exception if there is not enough memory for the operation.

The internal representation of a time span uses 64-bit signed integers (to avoid the year 2038 problem caused by 32-bit representation). This method initializes a time span object to represent a time span of x seconds, where x is the 64-bit signed integer obtained from concatenating highBits and lowBits.

Initializes a time span object to represent a time span of a specific number of seconds.

Converts a string to a number of seconds, and initializes a time span object to represent a time span of that number of seconds. This is useful for time spans that are too long to represent with an ASInt32 value.
