Trying to learn how to use RoundDateTimeDownToMinute

SCDateTime BarDateTime = sc.BaseDateTimeIn[sc.Index].RoundDateTimeDownToMinute;

I get this compile error:
error C3867: 'SCDateTime::RoundDateTimeDownToMinute': non-standard syntax; use '&' to create a pointer to member

I've searched all the studies in the ACS_Source directory for an example with no luck, also searched this forum and the online documentation but can't find anything.

Would you please provide example code for proper use?

Thank you!

There is an error in your code.

It needs to be:

SCDateTime BarDateTime = sc.BaseDateTimeIn[sc.Index].RoundDateTimeDownToMinute();

SCDateTime BarDateTime = sc.BaseDateTimeIn[sc.Index].RoundDateTimeDownToMinute();

Sorry that didn't work either.

Now I get this new compile error:
Error  C2440  'initializing': cannot convert from 'void' to 'SCDateTime'

I got this to compile but it doesn't seem to be rounding to the nearest minute according to the debugger:

SCDateTime BarDateTime = sc.BaseDateTimeIn[sc.Index];
BarDateTime.RoundDateTimeDownToMinute();

OK we see what the additional problem is.

We have put together proper documentation and an example here:
