The following code example converts Double values to Decimal numbers using the Double to Decimal conversion. This conversion requires the op_Explicit operator in Visual Basic.
// Example of the explicit conversion from double to decimal. using System; class DecimalFromDoubleDemo { const string formatter = "{0,25:E16}{1,33}"; // Get the exception type name; remove the namespace prefix. public static string GetExceptionType( Exception ex ) { string exceptionType = ex.GetType( ).ToString( ); return exceptionType.Substring( exceptionType.LastIndexOf( '.' ) + 1 ); } // Convert the double argument; catch exceptions that are thrown. public static void DecimalFromDouble( double argument ) { object decValue; // Convert the double argument to a decimal value. try { decValue = (decimal)argument; } catch( Exception ex ) { decValue = GetExceptionType( ex ); } Console.WriteLine( formatter, argument, decValue ); } public static void Main( ) { Console.WriteLine( "This example of the explicit conversion from double " + "to decimal \ngenerates the following output.\n" ); Console.WriteLine( formatter, "double argument", "decimal value" ); Console.WriteLine( formatter, "---------------", "-------------" ); // Convert double values and display the results.
