Decimal Constructor (UInt32)

Initializes a new instance of Decimal to the value of the specified 32-bit unsigned integer.

This API is not CLS-compliant. 

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

[CLSCompliantAttribute(false)]
public:
Decimal(
	unsigned int value
)

Parameters

value
Type: System::UInt32
The value to represent as a Decimal.

The following code example creates several Decimal numbers using the constructor overload that initializes a Decimal structure with a UInt32 value.


// Example of the Decimal( unsigned int ) constructor.
using namespace System;

// Create a Decimal object and display its value.
void CreateDecimal( unsigned int value, String^ valToStr )
{
   Decimal decimalNum = Decimal(value);

   // Format the constructor for display.
   String^ ctor = String::Format( "Decimal( {0} )", valToStr );

   // Display the constructor and its value.
   Console::WriteLine( "{0,-30}{1,16}", ctor, decimalNum );
}

int main()
{
   Console::WriteLine( "This example of the Decimal( unsigned "
   "int ) constructor \ngenerates the following output.\n" );
   Console::WriteLine( "{0,-30}{1,16}", "Constructor", "Value" );
   Console::WriteLine( "{0,-30}{1,16}", "-----------", "-----" );

   // Construct Decimal objects from unsigned int values.
   CreateDecimal( UInt32::MinValue, "UInt32::MinValue" );
   CreateDecimal( UInt32::MaxValue, "UInt32::MaxValue" );
   CreateDecimal( Int32::MaxValue, "Int32::MaxValue" );
   CreateDecimal( 999999999, "999999999" );
   CreateDecimal( 0x40000000, "0x40000000" );
   CreateDecimal( 0xC0000000, "0xC0000000" );
}
