  • Article

Converts a value of type SHORT to a value of type UINT8.

NTSTATUS RtlShortToUInt8(
  [in] SHORT sOperand,
       UINT8 *pui8Result
);

Parameters

[in] sOperand

The value to be converted.

pui8Result

A pointer to the converted value. In the case where the conversion causes a truncation of the original value, the function returns STATUS_INTEGER_OVERFLOW and this parameter is not valid.

Return value

Returns STATUS_SUCCESS if the operation is successful.

See the implementation of this helper function in ntintsafe.h in the WDK for possible error return values.

Remarks

This is one of a set of inline functions designed to provide type conversions and perform validity checks with minimal impact on performance.

This function uses the following alternate name:

  • RtlShortToByte
  • RtlInt16ToUInt8
  • RtlInt16ToByte
