Methods

CheckBit(Byte, Byte)

Declaration

public static bool CheckBit(byte data, byte bit)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.Byte	data
System.Byte	bit

Returns

Type	Description
System.Boolean

CheckBit(UInt16, UInt16)

Bitwise checks if the given bit is set in the data.

Declaration

public static bool CheckBit(ushort data, ushort bit)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.UInt16	data	A 16-bit unsigned int data
System.UInt16	bit	The zero-based position of a bit. I.e. bit 1 is the second bit.

Returns

Type	Description
System.Boolean	Returns TRUE if bit is set.

CheckBit(UInt32, UInt16)

Bitwise checks if the given bit is set in the data.

Declaration

public static bool CheckBit(uint data, ushort bit)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.UInt32	data	A 32-bit unsigned int data.
System.UInt16	bit	The zero-based position of a bit. I.e. bit 1 is the second bit.

Returns

Type	Description
System.Boolean	Returns TRUE if bit is set.

FlipBit(Byte, UInt16)

Flips the bit value at the given position in the data, from low to high, or from high to low.

Declaration

public static byte FlipBit(byte data, ushort bitposition)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.Byte	data	A byte of data.
System.UInt16	bitposition	A bit position to change.

Returns

Type	Description
System.Byte	The same data, but with one bit changed.

FlipBit(UInt32, UInt16)

Flips the bit value at the given position in the data, from low to high, or from high to low.

Declaration

public static uint FlipBit(uint data, ushort bitposition)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.UInt32	data	A 32-bit unsigned int of data.
System.UInt16	bitposition	A bit position to change.

Returns

Type	Description
System.UInt32	The same data, but with one bit changed.

GetByteFrom32bit(UInt32, Byte)

Get 32-bit unsigned int from 32-bit unsigned int, starting from a given offset.

Declaration

public static byte GetByteFrom32bit(uint data, byte offset)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.UInt32	data	A 32-bit unsigned int data.
System.Byte	offset	The offset (in bytes) from the start of the data.

Returns

Type	Description
System.Byte	Extracted 8-bit unsigned int (byte).

Exceptions

Type	Condition
System.ArgumentException	Thrown when offset is greater then 24.
