Message.GetVarULong Method

Namespace: Riptide

Assembly: RiptideNetworking.dll

GetVarULong()

Retrieves a positive number from the message, using fewer bits for smaller values.

public ulong GetVarULong()

Returns

ulong

The value that was retrieved.

Remarks

The value is retrieved in segments of 8 bits, 1 of which is used to indicate whether or not another segment follows. As a result, small values are retrieved from the message using fewer bits, while large values will require a few more bits than they would if they were retrieved via GetByte(), GetUShort(), GetUInt(), or GetULong() (or their signed counterparts).
