TimeSpan(Int64)
Initializes a new instance of the TimeSpan structure to the specified number of ticks.
public:

Examples
The following example creates several TimeSpan objects using the constructor overload that initializes a TimeSpan to a specified number of ticks.
// Example of the TimeSpan( __int64 ) constructor.
using namespace System;
// Create a TimeSpan object and display its value.
void CreateTimeSpan( __int64 ticks )
{
TimeSpan elapsedTime = TimeSpan(ticks);
// Format the constructor for display.
String^ ctor = String::Format( "TimeSpan( {0} )", ticks );
// Pad the end of a TimeSpan string with spaces if
// it does not contain milliseconds.
String^ elapsedStr = elapsedTime.ToString();
int pointIndex = elapsedStr->IndexOf( ':' );
pointIndex = elapsedStr->IndexOf( '.', pointIndex );
if ( pointIndex < 0 )
elapsedStr = String::Concat( elapsedStr, " " );
// Display the constructor and its value.
Console::WriteLine( "{0,-33}{1,24}", ctor, elapsedStr );
