BerConverter.Decode(String, Byte[]) Method

Definition

The Decode(String, Byte[]) method decodes a binary representation of the data, using BER, to retrieve structured data.

public:
 static cli::array <System::Object ^> ^ Decode(System::String ^ format, cli::array <System::Byte> ^ value);
public static object[] Decode (string format, byte[] value);
static member Decode : string * byte[] -> obj[]
Public Shared Function Decode (format As String, value As Byte()) As Object()

Parameters

format
String

The format string.

value
Byte[]

An array of BER data.

Returns

Object[]

The decoded data.

Exceptions

The format parameter contains a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).

The format parameter contains an undefined character.

The underlying decoding fails. The decoding rules include the following.
