UInt16::Parse Method (String^)

 
clsCompliantAlternativeM:System.Int32.Parse(System.String)

Converts the string representation of a number to its 16-bit unsigned integer equivalent.

This API is not CLS-compliant.

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

public:
[CLSCompliantAttribute(false)]
static unsigned short Parse(
	String^ s
)

Parameters

s
Type: System::String^

A string that represents the number to convert.

Return Value

Type: System::UInt16

A 16-bit unsigned integer equivalent to the number contained in s.

Exception Condition
ArgumentNullException

s is null.

FormatException

s is not in the correct format.

OverflowException

s represents a number less than UInt16::MinValue or greater than UInt16::MaxValue.

The s parameter should be the string representation of a number in the following form.

[ws][sign]digits[ws]

Elements in square brackets ([ and ]) are optional. The following table describes each element.

Element

Description

ws

Optional white space.

sign

An optional sign. Valid sign characters are determined by the NumberFormatInfo::NegativeSign and NumberFormatInfo::PositiveSign properties of the current culture. However, the negative sign symbol can be used only with zero; otherwise, the method throws an OverflowException.

digits

A sequence of digits ranging from 0 to 9. Any leading zeros are ignored.

System_CAPS_noteNote

The string specified by the s parameter is interpreted by using the NumberStyles::Integer style. It cannot contain any group separators or decimal separator, and it cannot have a decimal portion.

The s parameter is parsed by using the formatting information in a System.Globalization::NumberFormatInfo object that is initialized for the current system culture. For more information, see NumberFormatInfo::CurrentInfo. To parse a string by using the formatting information of a specific culture, use the Parse(String^, IFormatProvider^) method.

The following example calls the Parse(String^) method to convert each element in a string array to an unsigned 16-bit integer.
