Answer 2

You would better ask this in a C# forum, giving the string and what character you want.

Answer 3

Hi Cor,

yes you are right, but it was on accident. Changed it. The rest of the code has come from the online converter.

there is a little problem with the brackets, i have corrected this:


string s = Strings.Chr(Conversion.Int(Conversion.Val("&H" + Strings.Midftype, 1, 2)));

Answer 5

Thank you Heslacher !

That assignment statement as below generated the compiler errors;

1.  For the Conversion methods - Argument '1': cannot convert from 'double' to 'int'
2.  For the whole statement - The best overloaded method match for 'Microsoft.VisualBasic.Strings.Chr(int)' has some invalid arguments

public object buildpacket(ref int d, int s, string ftype, string pdu)
{
     string strF = Strings.Chr(Conversion.Int(Conversion.Val("&H" + Strings.Mid(ftype, 1, 2))));
}

hazz, there is some bracketing issues, put this line in your code:

string s = Strings.Chr(Conversion.Int(Conversion.Val("&H" + Strings.Midftype, 1, 2)));

Answer 7

hopefully illustrates the problem more clearly.

The line of code in the vb.net app at the top of the image compiles/runs correctly.

The C# conversion below it does not.

Answer 8

It's hard to replace VB's 'Val' function, so you might want to just use it directly until you get a good equivalent for your needs:

(char)((int)Math.Floor(Microsoft.VisualBasic.Conversion.Val("&H" + ftype.Substring(0, 2))));

Answer 9

Thank you David.  No compile problem. I'll test for functional equivalence.
With much appreciation.

Answer 10

Heslacher,

It is terrible converting VB6 to C# but special for you in a VB Net forum

:-)

char s =  (char)  Convert.ToInt32(ftype.Substring(0,2), 16);

But for VB Net not so different

 Dim s = ChrW(Convert.ToInt32(ftype.Substring(0, 2), 16))

Answer 11

Hi David,

I find the one from me nicer, although you did the same like me.

Not creating a string from it

Answer 12

Thank you Cor !
I'll test this out as well for functional equivalency as well ...
Much much appreciated.
