Converting FontUnit into float-value - ASP.NET - C#

Brutus
1 New Member
I'm a total newbie in C# and ASP.NET, so I hope I'm in the right forum. My very first project is a custom control that converts strings into images on the fly (through a httphandler) - that works fine, except for 'FontSize'. I have no clue how to convert the FontUnit into a float-value.

- This works fine:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. String sFontSize = context.Request.Params.Get("FontSize");
  2. FontUnitConverter fuc = new FontUnitConverter();
  3. FontUnit fu= FontUnit.Parse(sFontSize);
- This doesn't work:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. float nfu= (float)fuc.ConvertTo(fu, typeof(float));
- Nor:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. Single nfu = (Single) fuc.ConvertTo(fu, typeof(Single));
- I need the float-value to create a Font:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. Font newFont= new Font("Fontname", (float) FontSize);
Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanx, Brutus

Does anyone have C code laying around to do this? I have to read in some binary data files that contains some 4-byte IBM/370 floating point values. I would like a function to convert 4-byte IBM/370 float values into IEEE 754 'float' values that I can use directly with any modern C environment (that uses IEEE 754). I can handle endian conversion myself (the files are stored as big endian, and I'll process them on a little endian...

Hello Folks , General C data types question , more geared up towards embedded folks . I have a positive float quantity with a fractional part (one decimal point) which occupies 4 bytes . Now i want to stuff it in to a two byte quantity like unsigned short and then reconvert it back to float . We can use any method like type casting or directly doing low level

I am interested in converting sets of 4 bytes to floats in C++. I have a library that reads image data and returns the data as an array of unsigned chars. The image data is stored as 4-byte floats. How can I convert the sets of 4 bytes to floats? Thanks, Greg Book

Hi Group! I have a vector<floatvariable that I need to pass to a function, but the function takes a float * arguement. That's OK, I can convert by doing &MyVector.front(), but when I get back a float * from the function, how to convert that back to a vector? Thanks in advance!

I'm having this weird problem where my code does the following conversion from string to float: 27000000.0 -27000000.00 2973999.99 -29740000.00 2989999.13 -2989999.25 The number on the left is the string I get after tokenizing a bigger string. The number on the right is the number I get after the conversion.

Consider the equation (flight dynamics stuff): Yaw (Degrees) = Azimuth Angle(Radians) * 180 (Degrees) / 3.1415926535897932384626433832795 (Radians) There's a valid reason to use single precision floating point types. The number of decimal digits guaranteed to be correct on my implementation is 6. (i.e numeric_limits < float >::digits10 = 6 ) If I'm reading the IEEE standard, I'd could paraphrase the issue
