Int32 Structure

[This documentation is for preview only, and is subject to change in later releases. Blank topics are included as placeholders.]

Represents a 32-bit signed integer.

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

Syntax

'Declaration

Public Structure Int32
[SerializableAttribute]
public struct Int32

type Int32 =  struct end
JScript supports the use of structures, but not the declaration of new ones.

The Int32 type exposes the following members.

Methods

  Name Description
Public method Equals Indicates whether this instance and a specified object are equal. (Inherited from ValueType.)
Public method GetHashCode Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method GetType Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
Public methodStatic member Parse Converts the string representation of a number to its 32-bit signed integer equivalent.
Public method ToString() () () () Converts the numeric value of this instance to its equivalent string representation. (Overrides Object. . :: . .ToString() () () ().)
Public method ToString(String) Converts the numeric value of this instance to its equivalent string representation, using the specified format.

Fields

  Name Description
Public fieldStatic member MaxValue Represents the largest possible value of an Int32. This field is constant.
Public fieldStatic member MinValue Represents the smallest possible value of Int32. This field is constant.

Remarks

Int32 is an immutable value type that represents signed integers with values that range from negative 2,147,483,648 (which is represented by the Int32..::..MinValue constant) through positive 2,147,483,647 (which is represented by the Int32..::..MaxValue constant. The .NET Framework also includes an unsigned 32-bit integer value type, UInt32, which represents values that range from 0 to 4,294,967,295.

Thread Safety

All members of this type are thread safe. Members that appear to modify instance state actually return a new instance initialized with the new value. As with any other type, reading and writing to a shared variable that contains an instance of this type must be protected by a lock to guarantee thread safety.
