UnicodeEncoding.GetBytes Method (String, Int32, Int32, array<Byte[], Int32)

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Encodes a set of characters from the specified String into the specified byte array.

Namespace: System.Text
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
<SecuritySafeCriticalAttribute> _
Public Overrides Function GetBytes ( _
    s As String, _
    charIndex As Integer, _
    charCount As Integer, _
    bytes As Byte(), _
    byteIndex As Integer _
) As Integer

[SecuritySafeCriticalAttribute]
public override int GetBytes(
    string s,
    int charIndex,
    int charCount,
    byte[] bytes,
    int byteIndex
)

Parameters

s
Type: System.String
The String containing the set of characters to encode.

charIndex
Type: System.Int32
The zero-based index of the first character to encode.

charCount
Type: System.Int32
The number of characters to encode.

bytes
Type: array<System.Byte[]
The byte array to contain the resulting sequence of bytes.

byteIndex
Type: System.Int32
The zero-based index at which to start writing the resulting sequence of bytes.

Return Value

Type: System.Int32
The actual number of bytes written into bytes.

Exceptions

Exception	Condition
ArgumentNullException	s is null (Nothing). -or- bytes is null (Nothing).
ArgumentOutOfRangeException	charIndex or charCount or byteIndex is less than zero. -or- charIndex and charCount do not denote a valid range in chars. -or- byteIndex is not a valid index in bytes.
ArgumentException	Error detection is enabled, and s contains an invalid sequence of characters. -or- bytes does not have enough capacity from byteIndex to the end of the array to accommodate the resulting bytes.
EncoderFallbackException	A fallback occurred (see Understanding Encodings for fuller explanation).

Remarks

To calculate the exact array size required by GetBytes to store the resulting bytes, call the GetByteCount method. To calculate the maximum array size, call the GetMaxByteCount method. The GetByteCount method generally allocates less memory, while the GetMaxByteCount method generally executes faster.

With error detection, an invalid sequence causes this method to throw a ArgumentException. Without error detection, invalid sequences are ignored, and no exception is thrown.

Data to be converted, such as data read from a stream, might be available only in sequential blocks. In this case, or if the amount of data is so large that it needs to be divided into smaller blocks, the application should use the Decoder or the Encoder provided by the GetDecoder method or the GetEncoder method, respectively.

Note:
To ensure that the encoded bytes are decoded properly, the application should prefix encoded bytes with a preamble.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to encode a range of elements from a Unicode character array and store the encoded bytes in a range of elements in a byte array.

Imports System.Text
Imports Microsoft.VisualBasic.Strings

Class Example

   Public Shared Sub Demo(ByVal outputBlock As System.Windows.Controls.TextBlock)
      Dim bytes() As Byte

      ' Unicode characters.
      ' ChrW(35)  = #
      ' ChrW(37)  = %
      ' ChrW(928) = Pi
      ' ChrW(931) = Sigma
      Dim chars() As Char = {ChrW(35), ChrW(37), ChrW(928), ChrW(931)}

      Dim uni As New UnicodeEncoding()

      Dim byteCount As Integer = uni.GetByteCount(chars, 1, 2)
      bytes = New Byte(byteCount - 1) {}
      Dim bytesEncodedCount As Integer = uni.GetBytes(chars, 1, 2, bytes, 0)

      outputBlock.Text += String.Format("{0} bytes used to encode characters.", bytesEncodedCount) & vbCrLf

      outputBlock.Text &= "Encoded bytes: "
      Dim b As Byte
      For Each b In bytes
         outputBlock.Text += String.Format("[{0}]", b)
      Next b
      outputBlock.Text &= vbCrLf
   End Sub 'Main
End Class 'UnicodeEncodingExample

using System;
using System.Text;

class Example
{
   public static void Demo(System.Windows.Controls.TextBlock outputBlock)
   {
      Byte[] bytes;
      // Unicode characters.
      Char[] chars = new Char[] {
            '\u0023', // #
            '\u0025', // %
            '\u03a0', // Pi
            '\u03a3'  // Sigma
        };

      UnicodeEncoding Unicode = new UnicodeEncoding();

      int byteCount = Unicode.GetByteCount(chars, 1, 2);
      bytes = new Byte[byteCount];
      int bytesEncodedCount = Unicode.GetBytes(chars, 1, 2, bytes, 0);

      outputBlock.Text += String.Format(
          "{0} bytes used to encode characters.", bytesEncodedCount
      ) + "\n";

      outputBlock.Text += "Encoded bytes: ";
      foreach (Byte b in bytes)
      {
         outputBlock.Text += String.Format("[{0}]", b);
      }
      outputBlock.Text += "\n";
   }
}
