UInt16.MinValue Field
Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.
Represents the smallest possible value of UInt16. This field is constant.
Namespace: System
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
Syntax
'Declaration
Public Const MinValue As UShort
public const ushort MinValue
Remarks
The value of this constant is 0.
Examples
The following example uses the MinValue and MaxValue properties to ensure that an Int32 value is in the range of the UInt16 type before converting it to a UInt16 value. This prevents the conversion operation from throwing an OverflowException if the integer value is not in the range of the UInt16 type.
Dim integerValue As Integer = 1216
Dim uIntegerValue As UShort
If integerValue >= UShort.MinValue And integerValue <= UShort.MaxValue Then
uIntegerValue = CUShort(integerValue)
outputBlock.Text += CStr(uIntegerValue) + vbCrLf
Else
outputBlock.Text += String.Format("Unable to convert {0} to a UInt16t.", integerValue) + vbCrLf
End If
int integerValue = 1216;
ushort uIntegerValue;
if (integerValue >= ushort.MinValue & integerValue <= ushort.MaxValue)
{
uIntegerValue = (ushort)integerValue;
outputBlock.Text += uIntegerValue + "\n";
}
else
{
outputBlock.Text += String.Format("Unable to convert {0} to a UInt16t.", integerValue) + "\n";
}
