Parameters

metric: The Sparkplug metric that will perform the operation.
The value of this parameter cannot be null (Nothing in Visual Basic).
valueTypeCode: The type of the Sparkplug metric, expressed as .NET type code (System.TypeCode).
data: The initial Sparkplug data of the metric.
The value of this parameter cannot be null (Nothing in Visual Basic).

Return Value

Returns the , internally modified as defined by the method.

This method never returns null (Nothing in Visual Basic).

Exceptions

Exception Description

Exception	Description
System.ArgumentNullException	A `null` reference (`Nothing` in Visual Basic) is passed to a method that does not accept it as a valid argument. This is a usage error, i.e. it will never occur (the exception will not be thrown) in a correctly written program. Your code should not catch this exception.
System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException	The value of an argument is outside the allowable range of values as defined by the invoked method. This is a usage error, i.e. it will never occur (the exception will not be thrown) in a correctly written program. Your code should not catch this exception.
System.ComponentModel.InvalidEnumArgumentException	An invalid enumeration value was used. This is a usage error, i.e. it will never occur (the exception will not be thrown) in a correctly written program. Your code should not catch this exception.

System.ArgumentNullException

A null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) is passed to a method that does not accept it as a valid argument.

This is a usage error, i.e. it will never occur (the exception will not be thrown) in a correctly written program. Your code should not catch this exception.

System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException

The value of an argument is outside the allowable range of values as defined by the invoked method.

This is a usage error, i.e. it will never occur (the exception will not be thrown) in a correctly written program. Your code should not catch this exception.

System.ComponentModel.InvalidEnumArgumentException

An invalid enumeration value was used.

This is a usage error, i.e. it will never occur (the exception will not be thrown) in a correctly written program. Your code should not catch this exception.

Remarks

This is an extension method (info: C#, VB.NET). In languages that have support for extensions methods (such as C# and VB.NET), you can use the extension method as if it were a regular method on the object that is its first parameter. In other languages (such as with Python.NET), you will call the extension as a static method, and pass it the object on which it acts as its first parameter.
