Tries to format the value of the current instance as UTF-8 into the provided span of bytes.
public:
bool TryFormat(Span<System::Byte> utf8Destination, [Runtime::InteropServices::Out] int % bytesWritten, ReadOnlySpan<char> format, IFormatProvider ^ provider);
public bool TryFormat (Span<byte> utf8Destination, out int bytesWritten, ReadOnlySpan<char> format, IFormatProvider? provider);
abstract member TryFormat : Span<byte> * int * ReadOnlySpan<char> * IFormatProvider -> bool
Public Function TryFormat (utf8Destination As Span(Of Byte), ByRef bytesWritten As Integer, format As ReadOnlySpan(Of Char), provider As IFormatProvider) As Boolean
Parameters
The span in which to write this instance's value formatted as a span of bytes.
- bytesWritten
- Int32
When this method returns, contains the number of bytes that were written in utf8Destination
.
- format
- ReadOnlySpan<Char>
A span containing the characters that represent a standard or custom format string that defines the acceptable format for utf8Destination
.
- provider
- IFormatProvider
An optional object that supplies culture-specific formatting information for utf8Destination
.
Returns
true
if the formatting was successful; otherwise, false
.
Remarks
An implementation of this interface should produce the same string of characters as an implementation of ToString(String, IFormatProvider) or TryFormat(Span<Char>, Int32, ReadOnlySpan<Char>, IFormatProvider) on the same type. TryFormat should return false
only if there is not enough space in the destination buffer; any other failures should throw an exception.
