BitwiseCastToInt24 Method
|
Performs proper bitwise conversion between unsigned and signed value
Namespace: GSFAssembly: GSF.Core (in GSF.Core.dll) Version: 2.4.244-beta+c33f622c070b2c1078a06bcb41bdeb4c19d19a0b
SyntaxPublic Shared Function ToInt24 (
unsignedInt As UInt24
) As Int24
GSF.BitwiseCast.ToInt24 = function(unsignedInt);
View SourceParameters
- unsignedInt UInt24
- Unsigned UInt24 that is passed in to be converted to a signed Int24.
Return Value
Int24The Int24 value.
RemarksThis function is useful because CType(n, Int24) will throw an OverflowException for values greater than Int24.MaxValue.
For example, this function correctly converts unsigned 24-bit integer 16777215 (i.e., UInt24.MaxValue) to signed 24-bit integer -1.
