Definition

For a description of this member, see ToInt16(IFormatProvider).

 virtual short System.IConvertible.ToInt16(IFormatProvider ^ provider) = IConvertible::ToInt16;
short IConvertible.ToInt16 (IFormatProvider provider);
abstract member System.IConvertible.ToInt16 : IFormatProvider -> int16
override this.System.IConvertible.ToInt16 : IFormatProvider -> int16
Function ToInt16 (provider As IFormatProvider) As Short Implements IConvertible.ToInt16

Parameters

provider
IFormatProvider

This parameter is ignored.

Returns

The value of the current instance, converted to a Int16.

Exceptions

The resulting integer value is less than Int16.MinValue or greater than Int16.MaxValue.

Remarks

This member is an explicit interface member implementation. It can be used only when the Decimal instance is cast to an IConvertible interface. The recommended alternative is to call either the Decimal.ToInt16 method or the Convert.ToInt16 method.

The Decimal value is rounded toward zero to the nearest integer value.
