Important

This API is not CLS-compliant.

Returns a 64-bit unsigned integer converted from eight bytes at a specified position in a byte array.

public:
 static System::UInt64 ToUInt64(cli::array <System::Byte> ^ value, int startIndex);

[System.CLSCompliant(false)]
public static ulong ToUInt64 (byte[] value, int startIndex);

[<System.CLSCompliant(false)>]
static member ToUInt64 : byte[] * int -> uint64

Public Shared Function ToUInt64 (value As Byte(), startIndex As Integer) As ULong

Parameters

value: Byte[]

An array of bytes that includes the eight bytes to convert.

startIndex: Int32

The starting position within value.

Returns

UInt64

A 64-bit unsigned integer formed by the eight bytes beginning at startIndex.

Attributes: CLSCompliantAttribute

Exceptions

ArgumentException

startIndex is greater than or equal to the length of value minus 7, and is less than or equal to the length of value minus 1.

ArgumentNullException

value is null.

ArgumentOutOfRangeException

startIndex is less than zero or greater than the length of value minus 1.

Examples

The following code example converts elements of Byte arrays to UInt64 values with the ToUInt64 method.

Remarks

The ToUInt64 method converts the bytes from index startIndex to startIndex + 7 to a UInt64 value. The order of bytes in the array must reflect the endianness of the computer system's architecture. For more information, see the Remarks section of the BitConverter class topic.
