Methods

Cast(TypeCode, object, bool)

Performs a conversion between primitive types. Unfortunately we cannot use Convert.ChangeType because it has different semantics (e.g. rounding behavior for floats, overflow, etc.), so we write down every possible primitive C# cast and let the compiler figure out the exact semantics. And we have to do everything twice, once in a checked-block, once in an unchecked-block.

public static object Cast(TypeCode targetType, object input, bool checkForOverflow)

Parameters

targetType TypeCode
input object
checkForOverflow bool

Returns

object
