Convert.ToString Method (SByte, IFormatProvider)
Converts the value of the specified 8-bit signed integer to its equivalent string representation, using the specified culture-specific formatting information.
This API is not CLS-compliant.
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
[CLSCompliantAttribute(false)] public static string ToString( sbyte value, IFormatProvider provider )
Parameters
- value
-
Type:
System.SByte
The 8-bit signed integer to convert.
- provider
-
Type:
System.IFormatProvider
An object that supplies culture-specific formatting information.
This implementation is identical to SByte.ToString(IFormatProvider).
The following example defines a custom NumberFormatInfo class that defines its negative sign as the string "~" and its positive sign as the string "!". It then calls the Convert.ToString(SByte, IFormatProvider) method to convert each element in signed byte array to its equivalent string representation. The conversion uses the invariant culture as well as the custom NumberFormatInfo object.
sbyte[] numbers = { SByte.MinValue, -12, 17, SByte.MaxValue}; System.Globalization.NumberFormatInfo nfi = new System.Globalization.NumberFormatInfo(); nfi.NegativeSign = "~"; nfi.PositiveSign = "!"; foreach (sbyte number in numbers) Console.WriteLine(Convert.ToString(number, nfi)); // The example displays the following output: // ~128 // ~12 // 17 // 127
