Byte.ToString Method (IFormatProvider)

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

Converts the numeric value of the current Byte object to its equivalent string representation using the specified culture-specific formatting information.

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

Syntax

'Declaration
<SecuritySafeCriticalAttribute> _
Public Function ToString ( _
    provider As IFormatProvider _
) As String

[SecuritySafeCriticalAttribute]
public string ToString(
    IFormatProvider provider
)

Parameters

provider
Type: System.IFormatProvider
An IFormatProvider object that supplies culture-specific formatting information.

Return Value

Type: System.String
The string representation of the value of this object in the format specified by the provider parameter.

Implements

IConvertible.ToString(IFormatProvider)

Remarks

The return value is formatted with the general numeric format specifier ("G").

The provider parameter is an object that implements the IFormatProvider interface. Its GetFormat method returns a NumberFormatInfo object that provides culture-specific information about the format of the string that is returned by this method. The object that implements IFormatProvider can be any of the following:

A CultureInfo object that represents the culture whose formatting rules are to be used.
A NumberFormatInfo object that contains specific numeric formatting information for this value.
A custom object that implements IFormatProvider.

If provider is nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) or a NumberFormatInfo object cannot be obtained from provider, the return value is formatted using the NumberFormatInfo object for the thread current culture. For information about the thread current culture, see Thread.CurrentCulture.

The .NET Framework provides extensive formatting support, which is described in greater detail in the following formatting topics:

Examples

The following example iterates an array of byte values and displays each of them to the console by calling the ToString(IFormatProvider) method with different format providers.

Dim bytes() As Byte = {0, 1, 14, 168, 255}
Dim providers() As CultureInfo = {New CultureInfo("en-us"), _
                                  New CultureInfo("fr-fr"), _
                                  New CultureInfo("de-de"), _
                                  New CultureInfo("es-es")}
For Each byteValue As Byte In bytes
   For Each provider As CultureInfo In providers
      outputBlock.Text &= String.Format("{0,3} ({1})      ", byteValue.ToString(provider), provider.Name)
   Next
   outputBlock.Text &= vbCrLf
Next
' The example displays the following output:
'      0 (en-US)        0 (fr-FR)        0 (de-DE)        0 (es-ES)
'      1 (en-US)        1 (fr-FR)        1 (de-DE)        1 (es-ES)
'     14 (en-US)       14 (fr-FR)       14 (de-DE)       14 (es-ES)
'    168 (en-US)      168 (fr-FR)      168 (de-DE)      168 (es-ES)
'    255 (en-US)      255 (fr-FR)      255 (de-DE)      255 (es-ES)

byte[] bytes = { 0, 1, 14, 168, 255 };
CultureInfo[] providers = {new CultureInfo("en-us"), 
                           new CultureInfo("fr-fr"), 
                           new CultureInfo("de-de"), 
                           new CultureInfo("es-es")};
foreach (byte byteValue in bytes)
{
   foreach (CultureInfo provider in providers)
      outputBlock.Text += String.Format("{0,3} ({1})      ",
                    byteValue.ToString(provider), provider.Name);

   outputBlock.Text += "\n";
}
