TryReadValue Method

TryReadValue(out ReadOnlyMemory<Byte>, Int32)

Try to read the TLV at the current position. If this succeeds, return true and set the value argument to a new ReadOnlyMemory object containing the value as a byte array, and move the position to the byte beyond the current TLV.

C#

public bool TryReadValue(out ReadOnlyMemory<byte> value, int expectedTag)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.ReadOnlyMemory<System.Byte>	value	The output parameter where the value will be deposited.
System.Int32	expectedTag	The tag that should be at the current position.

Returns

System.Boolean

A boolean, true if the read succeeds, false otherwise.

Remarks

This is the same as ReadValue, except this method will not throw an exception if there is an error in reading, only return false. That is, if the expected tag is not found at the current position, or the length octets are not a valid encoding, or there is not enough data in the buffer for the length given, this method will return false.

See the documentation for ReadValue for more information on what this method does.

Note that the value returned is a reference to the input encoding. Do not clear or alter the encoding until after the full encoding has been read and each value operated on.
