Get TimeSpan from HH:mm:ss string

Question

I'm trying to get a TimeSpan from "24:30:00" string so I can define cacheOptions in C# but I'm getting 24 days instead of 24 hours.

string cacheExpirationTime = "24:00:00";
var cacheOptions = new MemoryCacheOptions()
{
    ExpirationScanFrequency = TimeSpan.Parse(cacheExpirationTime, CultureInfo.InvariantCulture)
};

I also tried without using CultureInfo, but it didn't work.

Which is the proper way to do this?

24 hours is 1 day, so you should format it as such.

string cacheExpirationTime = "1.00:00:00";
var cacheOptions = new MemoryCacheOptions()
{
    ExpirationScanFrequency = TimeSpan.Parse(cacheExpirationTime, CultureInfo.InvariantCulture)
};
