Decimal.ToInt64 (Decimal)

Converts a Decimal to an Int64 with a specified format.

[Visual Basic]
Overloads Public Shared Function ToInt64( _
   ByVal d As Decimal _
) As Long
[C#]
public static long ToInt64(
   Decimal d
);
[C++]
public: static __int64 ToInt64(
   Decimal d
);
[JScript]
public static function ToInt64(
   d : Decimal
) : long;

Parameters

d
The Decimal value to convert.

Return Value

The result's of converting the argument to a long.

Exceptions

Exception Type Condition
OverflowException is thrown if d is less than Int64.MinValue or greater than Int64.MaxValue.

Remarks

The ToInt64 method returns a long. It returns a 64-bit, 8-byte signed integer with the converted number.

The Decimal value is rounded toward zero to the nearest integer value, and the result of this operation is returned as a long.

This method implements IConvertible, which replaced IValue. This method is used to obtain the type code for a specified object. (See Convert and Value for more information about conversions; see the Type for more information about types.)
