Namespace: GSF
Assembly: GSF.Core (in GSF.Core.dll) Version: 2.4.205-beta+5ef4169f3b1079d8b163dd363614f656bd140924

public static ushort ToUInt16(
	short signedInt
)
View Source

Parameters

signedInt  Int16
Signed integer that is passed in to be converted to an unsigned short.

Return Value

UInt16
The unsigned short value.
Remarks

This function is useful because Convert.ToUInt16 will throw an OverflowException for values less than zero.

For example, this function correctly converts signed 16-bit integer -32768 (i.e., Int16.MinValue) to unsigned 16-bit integer 32768.
