No exception is thrown, function just halts at this statement:
int productQuantity = Convert.ToInt32("1.00");
and returns.
What am I doing wrong to convert this float to Int32?
Note: I am running in a BackgroundWorkerThread.
An exception is being thrown in this case it’s just not being surfaced in the debugger. This string is not in a format that is convertible to an
Int32type and hence throws and exception. You can verify this by wrapping it in a try/catch block if the IDE isn’t cooperating.The best approach here is probably to convert the string to a
doubleand then manually cast it down to anint. This does open the door for data loss due to precision differences. But given your input is in a float style format this is unavoidable if you want the final product to be anint
