Examples

The following sample converts a variable of type SByte to a string, and vice versa.

SByte mySByte( +121);
String^ mySByteStr = "-100";
Console::WriteLine( TypeDescriptor::GetConverter( mySByte )->ConvertTo( mySByte, String::typeid ) );
Console::WriteLine( TypeDescriptor::GetConverter( mySByte )->ConvertFrom( mySByteStr ) );
sbyte mySByte=+121;
string mySByteStr="-100";
Console.WriteLine(TypeDescriptor.GetConverter(mySByte).ConvertTo(mySByte, typeof(string))); 
Console.WriteLine(TypeDescriptor.GetConverter(mySByte).ConvertFrom(mySByteStr));    
'This data type is not supported in Visual Basic.

Remarks

This converter can convert only an 8-bit unsigned integer object to and from a string.

The SByte value type represents integers with values ranging from negative 128 to positive 127. This data type is not supported in Visual Basic.

Note

You should never create an instance of SByteConverter. Instead, call the GetConverter method of TypeDescriptor. For more information, see the examples in the TypeConverter base class and How to: Implement a Type Converter.
