Thread Safety

Any public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are safe for multithreaded operations. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.

Remarks

ByteViewer provides an interface for viewing hexadecimal, ANSI, and Unicode formatted data.

The DisplayMode enumeration specifies the identifiers that are used to indicate the display mode to use. The Auto display mode selects a default display mode based on the contents of the byte array. ByteViewer uses a simple algorithm to determine what kind of data is stored in the buffer. The hexadecimal Hexdump view displays the hexadecimal values and corresponding byte representations (chars) in a read-only edit box. The default number of columns is 16. The Ansi and Unicode views show the byte array in a read-only edit box. In these views, the a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) characters are replaced with Unicode block characters.
