Substract time

Hi all,

Could You, please, tell me how I can substract or add two variables in format HH:mm:ss (time)? That it would be correct…
Now I am doing:
Time → “tokenize” delim( : ) → TimeList
Time2 → “tokenize” delim( : ) → TimeList2

Substract Ints: TimeList[0]-TimeList2[0], …[1]-…[1], …[2]-…[2] = result Time. But I don’t think this one correct.

Thank You for all information,

Hi,
I just want to wrote. Sorry, only now I found Your answers.
So, I wrote by myself - not in Java, but in webMethods.

Service:

  1. Two times at input;
  2. Tokenize both to HH, mm, ss;
  3. Substract each part;
  4. Branch if ss or mm with “-”;
  5. Concat theese parts with " : ".
