IntegerConverter

Description

The IntegerConverter class allows you to convert arbitrary values to integers using the following extended conversion rules:

• Strings are converted to floats, then to integers
• DateTime: total number of milliseconds since unix epoch
• Boolean: 1 for True and 0 for False

Static methods

ToInteger

Converts value into integer or returns 0 when the conversion is not possible.
See LongConverter.ToLong,
LongConverter.ToLongWithDefault

public static int ToInteger(object value)

• value: object - value to convert.
• returns: int - integer value or 0 when the conversion is not supported.

ToIntegerWithDefault

Converts value into integer or returns a given default value when the conversion is not possible. See LongConverter.ToLongWithDefault,
LongConverter.ToNullableLong

public static int ToIntegerWithDefault(object value, int defaultValue)

• value: object - value to convert.
• defaultValue: int - default value.
• returns: int - integer value or default when the conversion is not supported.

ToNullableInteger

Converts value into integer or returns null when conversion is not possible. See LongConverter.ToNullableLong

public static int ToNullableInteger(object value)

• value: object - value to convert.
• returns: int - integer value or null when the conversion is not supported.

Examples

var value1 = IntegerConverter.ToNullableInteger("ABC"); // Result: null
var value2 = IntegerConverter.ToNullableInteger("123.456"); // Result: 123.456
var value3 = IntegerConverter.ToNullableInteger(true); // Result: 1
var value4 = IntegerConverter.ToNullableInteger(new Date()); // Result: current milliseconds
