HostFunctionstoUInt64 Method

Converts the specified value to a strongly typed UInt64 instance.

Namespace: Microsoft.ClearScript
Assembly: ClearScript.Core (in ClearScript.Core.dll) Version: 7.5.0
Syntax
Copy
public Object toUInt64(
	IConvertible value
)

Parameters

value  IConvertible
The value to convert.

Return Value

Object
An object that can be passed to a parameter of type UInt64.
Remarks
This function converts value to UInt64 and packages the result to retain its numeric type across the host-script boundary. It may be useful for passing arguments to UInt64 parameters if the script engine does not support that type natively.
Example
The following code adds an element of type UInt64 to a strongly typed list. It assumes that an instance of ExtendedHostFunctions is exposed under the name "host" (see AddHostObject).
JavaScript
Copy
// import types
var ElementT = host.type("System.UInt64");
var ListT = host.type("System.Collections.Generic.List", ElementT);
// create a list
var list = host.newObj(ListT);
// add a list element
list.Add(host.toUInt64(42));
