IfxTimeUnit enumeration

IfxTimeUnit is an enumeration that holds the valid time units used with IfxDateTime, IfxMonthSpan, and IfxTimeSpan. IfxTimeUnit has members for each of the major time units.

Table 1. The non-fraction members of IfxTimeUnit
IfxTimeUnit member	Unit
Year	Years
Month	Months
Day	Days
Hour	Hours
Minute	Minutes
Second	Full seconds

It also has several members that represent fractions of a second at several different precisions.

Table 2. Fractional members of IfxTimeUnit
IfxTimeUnit member	Precision	Example
Fraction1	Tenths of a second	1962-04-16 11:35:10.1
Fraction2	Hundredths of a second	1962-04-16 11:35:10.12
Fraction or Fraction3	Thousandths of a second	1962-04-16 11:35:10.123
Fraction4	Ten thousandths of a second	1962-04-16 11:35:10.1234
Fraction5	Hundred thousandths of a second	1962-04-16 11:35:10.12345

The HCL OneDB™ time data types include properties that return the fractions of a second portion as milliseconds (thousandths of a second). They do not, however, include properties that return the fractions of a second in any of the other precisions.
