Public Properties

Property	Type	Description

Method	Description
DecodeHex ( this hex ) : string	Decodes the hexadecimal string into its normal form.
EncodeAsHex ( this value, string prefix = "" ) : string	Returns a hex string representation of an array of bytes. From: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/blambert/archive/2009/02/22/blambert-codesnip-fast-byte-array-to-hex-string-conversion.aspx
IsAnonymous ( this type ) : bool	Determines whether the specified type is anonymous.
ToBytes ( this datetime, byte array, int offset ) : void	Writes the datetime as a unix timestamp to the provided array
ToDateTime ( this timestamp ) : System.DateTime	Translates a unix/POSIX timestamp to a DateTime
ToGuid ( this bytes, int offset ) : System.Guid	converts the array to a Guid value
ToHex ( this value, string prefix = "" ) : string	Returns a hex string representation of an array of bytes. From: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/blambert/archive/2009/02/22/blambert-codesnip-fast-byte-array-to-hex-string-conversion.aspx
ToInt ( this bytes, int offset ) : int	converts the array into a int value (big-endian)
ToLong ( this bytes, int offset ) : long	converts the array into a long value (big-endian)

ToTimestamp ( this datetime ) : long	Translates the DateTime to a unix/POSIX timestamp

Method	Description
GetHexVal ( char hex ) : int

Decodes the hexadecimal string into its normal form.

Error parsing hexadecimal string. A hex string must have an even number of digits.
