Convert Java to C# Help.

Hi Ladoes and Gents,

I am very new to Java and had a little code I would love some help with.  I basically need to get the associative C# version of this Java code.  Please if you could comment the heck out of the code to describe what it does on the c# versioni as well it would be greatly appreciated.

FYI I have tried to install the java to C# conversion assistant on a few different machines with different versions of visual studio with no luck.  I get an error message so a automated conversion is out.

Let me please relay my gracious thank you in advance.  I hope everyone is well.

This is how it could be. But I can't guarantee that it will work as I don't fully understand what you are trying to do.
Please note that overriding/hiding in C# is a bit more complex than in Java, so you need to think of it in a different way (see the keywords override, new, virtual, and also this article). If I don't know your intentions, then I can't write the code properly.

Sorry for that, here's a correction. Note that the override/new keywords are missing (it will throw warnings) and that it will throw errors at you because ToBytes and GetBytesCount are not overriden.

Hi  !

No I understand it's probably difficult to see the whole purpose without all the classes.  There are just 2 more.  I'll list them both now if you want to do those as well.  It is to read in binary historical price files and then work with them.  I've have a file which explains the whole thing if I can email it to you.

Regardless if you continue to help, you're are a life saver.  Thanks spule

I'll be listing the last two now.
