TIniFile.ReadTime

Description
Expand with: make the description more clear |
This function will try to read a TDateTime value from specified section and key
If it fails to do so for some reason, the Default value is returned.
This function is very similar to ReadDate, however, it includes only specific time, not date.
Important: Result is a part of a whole day in a decimal part that have passed
since 00:00:00 till time under the key in the ini file. Because of that, it's probably a good idea to use ReadString to read a clarified date. You could also encode it using one of the available Functions
Example
example.ini in soldatserver's root folder
[ModConfig]
Date1=00:00:00
Date2=12:00:00
Date3=13:48:00
script code:
const
// assuming Sandboxed Level < 2
PATH = 'example.ini';
var
Ini: TIniFile;
temp: TDateTime; // could as well be temp: Double;
begin
Ini := File.CreateINI(PATH);
temp := Ini.ReadTime('ModConfig','Date1',0); // temp = 0.0
temp := Ini.ReadTime('ModConfig','Date2',0); // temp = 0.5
temp := Ini.ReadTime('ModConfig','Date3',0); // temp = 0.575
Ini.Free;
end.
