Comparison of TTime item in Setting list and current time fails

[chandran.biju007]

Hi,
I have created a Setting List in my application following the link
http://wiki.forum.nokia.com/index.php/Settings_Lists

I have a Time editor in the Setting List.

Once the time is set in the setting list,my app performs a comparison between the set time and current time.
Say the time set was 3.52 PM
The comparison is done as follows:-

 TTime now;
	 TTime settingTime;
	 settingTime = iSleepSettingsData->SettingTime();
	 now.HomeTime();
	 HBufC* timeFormatString = NULL;
	 TBuf<50> timeString;
	 timeFormatString = CEikonEnv::Static()->
	                AllocReadResourceLC(R_QTN_TIME_USUAL);
	 
	 now.FormatL(timeString,*timeFormatString);
	 RDebug::Printf("Present time:");
	 RDebug::Print(timeString);
	 
	 settingTime.FormatL(timeString,*timeFormatString);
	 RDebug::Printf("Setting time:");
	 RDebug::Print(timeString);
	 TTimeIntervalHours minDiff;
	 now.HoursFrom(settingTime, minDiff);
	 RDebug::Print(_L("Current time is %d hours ahead from set time ////////////////////////////"),minDiff.Int());
	 if(now.operator ==(settingTime)){

           RDebug::Printf("The comparison succeeded");
         }else{
           RDebug::Printf("The comparison failed");
         }

The output is as follows:-

Present time:
5:57 pm
Setting time:
3:52 pm
Current time is 17619842 hours ahead from set time ////////////////////////////
The comparison failed

Kindly someone please tell me why it gives such an absurd number of hours when the difference is just 2.
Should i convert the TTime received from the setting list to some other format.What is being done wrong...
Plz Help!!!

Have you tested it on real device. It should work fine on the device.

No it doesnt work on the real device as well..
When a supply the settingTime to an RTimer this way

iTimer->At(settingTime));

Then the callback method of the notifier of the timer AO,registers an error with error code -10.

void CAppUi::TimerExpired(TAny* aTimer,TInt aError)
	{
	if(aError == KErrNone)
	  {
	  // Timer successfully completed, handle it
	  ShowInfoL(_L("Timer Expired"));
	  }
	}

aError is -10.

Error code -10 is
In the context of mathematical or time/date functions, indicates a calculation that has produced a result smaller than the smallest magnitude of a finite number allowed by the representation.

When i print the settingTime as explained in the previous post it prints it proper.
What is it that i should do to give the setting time as input to the RTimer.Is any intermediate conversion needed????
