Filter by nested properties of type timespan

Hi folks,

I am new to powershell and I wanted to understand the concepts behind it and play a bit with filtering by objects resp. by properties. For example I wanted to filter the output of get-process and only show processes with TotalProcessorTime.Seconds greater than 1. Sorry for that stupid example, but I only chose a random property and sadly this does not work 🙂

get-process | where TotalProcessorTime.Seconds -gt 1

For the above command I got an empty result set.

But when I look at TotalProcessorTime of some processes I see that there are some processes that TotalProcessorTime.Second is greater than 1.

PS C:\Windows\system32> get-process | Select-Object TotalProcessorTime -First 5

TotalProcessorTime
------------------
00:00:00.1406250
00:00:00.0781250
00:00:01.9531250
00:00:00.0468750
00:00:05.1250000

So what I am doing wrong? Do I have to take a different approach?

I did a check with a variable of type timespan and in this example I can read the property Seconds:

PS C:\Windows\system32> $ts = New-TimeSpan -Hours 1 -Minutes 25 -Seconds 5
PS C:\Windows\system32> $ts.GetType()

IsPublic IsSerial Name                                     BaseType
-------- -------- ----                                     --------
True     True     TimeSpan                                 System.ValueType

PS C:\Windows\system32> $ts.Seconds
5
