OpcLabs.BaseLib Assembly > OpcLabs.BaseLib.DataTypeModel Namespace > SequenceData Class > BitsFromValue Method : BitsFromValue(UInt64,Int32) Method
The value to be converted to a sequence of bits.
The number of bits from the value to be converted.

Valid values of this parameter are in the range from 0 to 2147483647 (Int32.MaxValue).

Parameters

value
The value to be converted to a sequence of bits.
bitCount
The number of bits from the value to be converted.

Valid values of this parameter are in the range from 0 to 2147483647 (Int32.MaxValue).

Return Value

Returns a sequence data with PrimitiveData elements consisting of bitCount bits from the value.

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

Exceptions
ExceptionDescription

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.
