Source:: Int64.cs

Tries to parse a string into a value.

public:
 static bool TryParse(System::String ^ s, IFormatProvider ^ provider, [Runtime::InteropServices::Out] long % result) = IParsable<long>::TryParse;

public static bool TryParse (string? s, IFormatProvider? provider, out long result);

static member TryParse : string * IFormatProvider * int64 -> bool

Public Shared Function TryParse (s As String, provider As IFormatProvider, ByRef result As Long) As Boolean

Parameters

s: String

The string to parse.

provider: IFormatProvider

An object that provides culture-specific formatting information about s.

result: Int64

When this method returns, contains the result of successfully parsing s or an undefined value on failure.

Returns

Boolean

true if s was successfully parsed; otherwise, false.

Examples

The following example calls the Int64.TryParse(String, Int64) method with a number of different string values.

using System;

public class StringParsing

   {
      TryToParse(null);

      TryToParse("   -322   ");
      TryToParse("+4302");
      TryToParse("(100);");

      {
         if (value == null) value = "";
         Console.WriteLine("Attempted conversion of '{0}' failed.", value);

' The example displays the following output to the console:
'       Attempted conversion of '' failed.
'       Converted '160519' to 160519.
'       Attempted conversion of '9432.0' failed.
'       Attempted conversion of '16,667' failed.
'       Converted '   -322   ' to -322.
'       Converted '+4302' to 4302.
'       Attempted conversion of '(100)' failed.
'       Attempted conversion of '01FA' failed.

Some of the strings that the TryParse(String, Int64) method is unable to convert in this example are:

"9432.0". The conversion fails because the string cannot contain a decimal separator; it must contain integral digits only.
"16,667". The conversion fails because the string cannot contain group separators; it must contain integral digits only.
"(100)". The conversion fails because the string cannot contain a negative sign other than the one defined by the current culture's NumberFormatInfo.NegativeSign and NumberFormatInfo.NumberNegativePattern properties.
"01FA". The conversion fails because the string cannot contain hexadecimal digits; it must contain decimal digits only.

Remarks

The TryParse method is like the Parse method, except the TryParse method does not throw an exception if the conversion fails. It eliminates the need to use exception handling to test for a FormatException in the event that s is invalid and cannot be successfully parsed.

The s parameter contains a number of the form:

[ws][sign]digits[ws]

Elements in square brackets ([ and ]) are optional. The following table describes each element.

Element	Description
ws	An optional white space.
sign	An optional sign.
digits	A sequence of digits ranging from 0 to 9.

The s parameter is interpreted using the NumberStyles.Integer style. In addition to the decimal digits, only leading and trailing spaces together with a leading sign are allowed. To explicitly define the style elements together with the culture-specific formatting information that can be present in s, use the TryParse(String, NumberStyles, IFormatProvider, Int64) method.

The s parameter is parsed using the formatting information in a NumberFormatInfo object initialized for the current system culture. For more information, see CurrentInfo.

This overload of the TryParse method interprets all digits in the s parameter as decimal digits. To parse the string representation of a hexadecimal number, call the TryParse(String, NumberStyles, IFormatProvider, Int64) overload.

Remarks

The style parameter defines the style elements (such as white space or a positive or negative sign) that are allowed in the s parameter for the parse operation to succeed. It must be a combination of bit flags from the NumberStyles enumeration. Depending on the value of style,the s parameter may include the following elements:

[ws][$][sign][digits,]digits[.fractional_digits][e[sign]exponential_digits][ws]

Or, if the style parameter includes NumberStyles.AllowHexSpecifier:

[ws]hexdigits[ws]

Elements in square brackets ([ and ]) are optional. The following table describes each element.

Element	Description
ws	Optional white space. White space can appear at the beginning of `s` if `style` includes the NumberStyles.AllowLeadingWhite flag, or at the end of `s` if `style` includes the NumberStyles.AllowTrailingWhite flag.
$	A culture-specific currency symbol. Its position in the string is defined by the CurrencyPositivePattern property of the NumberFormatInfo object returned by the GetFormat method of the `provider` parameter. The currency symbol can appear in `s` if `style` includes the NumberStyles.AllowCurrencySymbol flag.
sign	An optional sign. A sign symbol can appear in `s` if `style` includes the NumberStyles.AllowLeadingSign or NumberStyles.AllowTrailingSign flags.
digits fractional_digits exponential_digits	A sequence of digits from 0 through 9. For fractional_digits, only the digit 0 is valid.
,	A culture-specific thousands separator. The thousands separator of the culture specified by `provider` can appear in `s` if `style` includes the NumberStyles.AllowThousands flag.
.	A culture-specific decimal point symbol. The decimal point symbol of the culture specified by `provider` can appear in `s` if `style` includes the NumberStyles.AllowDecimalPoint flag.
e	The 'e' or 'E' character, which indicates that the value is represented in exponential notation. The `s` parameter can represent a number in exponential notation if `style` includes the NumberStyles.AllowExponent flag.
hexdigits	A sequence of hexadecimal digits from 0 through f, or 0 through F.

Note

Any terminating NUL (U+0000) characters in s are ignored by the parsing operation, regardless of the value of the style argument.

A string with decimal digits only (which corresponds to the NumberStyles.None flag) always parses successfully. Most of the remaining NumberStyles members control elements that may be but are not required to be present in this input string. The following table indicates how individual NumberStyles members affect the elements that may be present in s.

Non-composite NumberStyles values	Elements permitted in s in addition to digits
NumberStyles.None	Decimal digits only.
NumberStyles.AllowDecimalPoint	The decimal point ( . ) and fractional_digits elements. However, fractional_digits must consist of only one or more 0 digits or the method returns `false`.
NumberStyles.AllowExponent	The `s` parameter can also use exponential notation. The `s` parameter must represent an integer within the range of the Int64 data type without a non-zero fractional component.
NumberStyles.AllowLeadingWhite	The ws element at the beginning of `s`.
NumberStyles.AllowTrailingWhite	The ws element at the end of `s`.
NumberStyles.AllowLeadingSign	A sign can appear before digits.
NumberStyles.AllowTrailingSign	A sign can appear after digits.
NumberStyles.AllowParentheses	The sign element in the form of parentheses enclosing the numeric value.
NumberStyles.AllowThousands	The thousands separator ( , ) element.
NumberStyles.AllowCurrencySymbol	The $ element.
NumberStyles.Currency	All elements. The `s` parameter cannot represent a hexadecimal number or a number in exponential notation.
NumberStyles.Float	The ws element at the beginning or end of `s`, sign at the beginning of `s`, and the decimal point ( . ) symbol. The `s` parameter can also use exponential notation.
NumberStyles.Number	The ws, sign, thousands separator (,), and decimal point (.) elements.
NumberStyles.Any	All styles, except `s` cannot represent a hexadecimal number.

If the NumberStyles.AllowHexSpecifier flag is used, s must be a hexadecimal value without a prefix. For example, "C9AF3" parses successfully, but "0xC9AF3" does not. The only other flags that can be present in style are NumberStyles.AllowLeadingWhite and NumberStyles.AllowTrailingWhite. (The NumberStyles enumeration has a composite style, NumberStyles.HexNumber, that includes both white space flags.)

The provider parameter is an IFormatProvider implementation, such as a CultureInfo object or a NumberFormatInfo object, whose GetFormat method returns a NumberFormatInfo object. The NumberFormatInfo object provides culture-specific information about the format of s. If provider is null, the NumberFormatInfo object for the current culture is used.
