ToBytes Function

Converts the data type to a TIdBytes value.

Pascal

function ToBytes(
    const AValue: TIdBytes; 
    const ASize: Integer
): TIdBytes; overload;

Parameters

Parameters	Description
AValue	Bytes values to be converted.
ASize	Number of bytes to include in the converted data type.

Returns

TIdBytes - Results of the data type conversion.

Description

ToBytes is an overloaded TIdBytes function used to convert the TIdBytes value in AValue up to and including the number of byte values specified in ASize.

Since AValue is already a TIdBytes data type, no real conversion is required. The return value for the function is resized to the value in ASize, and CopyTIdBytes is called to copy the number of bytes in ASize from AValue into the return value for the function.
