Converts the argument to a long by an unsigned conversion.

[Android.Runtime.Register("toUnsignedLong", "(B)J", "", ApiSince=26)]
public static long ToUnsignedLong (sbyte x);

[<Android.Runtime.Register("toUnsignedLong", "(B)J", "", ApiSince=26)>]
static member ToUnsignedLong : sbyte -> int64

Parameters

x: SByte

the value to convert to an unsigned long

Returns

Int64

the argument converted to long by an unsigned conversion

Attributes: RegisterAttribute

Remarks

Converts the argument to a long by an unsigned conversion. In an unsigned conversion to a long, the high-order 56 bits of the long are zero and the low-order 8 bits are equal to the bits of the byte argument.

Consequently, zero and positive byte values are mapped to a numerically equal long value and negative byte values are mapped to a long value equal to the input plus 2<sup>8</sup>.
