public:
 void WriteCompressedSignedInteger(int value);

public void WriteCompressedSignedInteger (int value);

member this.WriteCompressedSignedInteger : int -> unit

Public Sub WriteCompressedSignedInteger (value As Integer)

Parameters

value

Int32

Exceptions

ArgumentOutOfRangeException

value can't be represented as a compressed signed integer.

Remarks

If the value lies between -64 (0xFFFFFFC0) and 63 (0x3F), inclusive, encode as a one-byte integer: bit 7 clear, value bits 5 through 0 held in bits 6 through 1, sign bit (value bit 31) in bit 0.

If the value lies between -8192 (0xFFFFE000) and 8191 (0x1FFF), inclusive, encode as a two-byte integer: 15 set, bit 14 clear, value bits 12 through 0 held in bits 13 through 1, sign bit(value bit 31) in bit 0.

If the value lies between -268435456 (0xF000000) and 268435455 (0x0FFFFFFF), inclusive, encode as a four-byte integer: 31 set, 30 set, bit 29 clear, value bits 27 through 0 held in bits 28 through 1, sign bit(value bit 31) in bit 0.
