BitsFromValue(PrimitiveDataType,UInt64,Int32) Method

Creates sequence data from bits of an unsigned integer value, given the primitive data type for the bits.

Syntax

[NotNull()]
public static SequenceData BitsFromValue( 
   PrimitiveDataType bitDataType,
   ulong value,
   int bitCount
)

[NotNull()]
public:
static SequenceData^ BitsFromValue( 
   PrimitiveDataType^ bitDataType,
   ulong value,
   int bitCount
)

'Declaration
 
<NotNullAttribute()>
Public Overloads Shared Function BitsFromValue( _
   ByVal bitDataType As PrimitiveDataType, _
   ByVal value As ULong, _
   ByVal bitCount As Integer _
) As SequenceData

'Usage
 
Dim bitDataType As PrimitiveDataType
Dim value As ULong
Dim bitCount As Integer
Dim value As SequenceData
 
value = SequenceData.BitsFromValue(bitDataType, value, bitCount)

Parameters

bitDataType: The primitive data type to be associated with the elements.
The value of this parameter can be null (Nothing in Visual Basic).
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

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

Exceptions

Exception	Description
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.

Exception

Description

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.

Remarks

This method overloads synthesizes a new sequence data type using and associates it with the sequence data.

Requirements

Target Platforms: .NET Framework: Windows 10 (selected versions), Windows 11 (selected versions), Windows Server 2016, Windows Server 2022; .NET: Linux, macOS, Microsoft Windows
