Namespace: System
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
Syntax
'Declaration
<CLSCompliantAttribute(False)> _
Public Shared Function ToUInt16 ( _
value As Object, _
provider As IFormatProvider _
) As UShort
[CLSCompliantAttribute(false)]
public static ushort ToUInt16(
Object value,
IFormatProvider provider
)
Parameters
- value
Type: System.Object
An Object that implements the IConvertible interface.
- provider
Type: System.IFormatProvider
An IFormatProvider interface implementation that supplies culture-specific formatting information.
Return Value
Type: System.UInt16
A 16-bit unsigned integer equivalent to the value of value, or zero if value is nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).
Remarks
The return value is the result of invoking the IConvertible.ToUInt16 method of the underlying type of value.
provider enables the user to specify culture-specific conversion information about the contents of value. For example, if value is a String that represents a number, provider could supply culture-specific information about the notation used to represent that number.
The base types ignore provider; however, it is honored if value is a user-defined type that implements the IConvertible interface.
