RtlByteToChar function

Description

Converts a value of type BYTE to a value of type CHAR.

Parameters

`bOperand` [in]

The value to be converted.

`pch` [out]

A pointer to the converted value. In the case where the conversion causes a truncation of the original value, the function returns STATUS_INTEGER_OVERFLOW and this parameter is not valid.

Return value

Returns STATUS_SUCCESS if the operation is successful.

See the implementation of this helper function in ntintsafe.h in the WDK for possible error return values.

Remarks

This is one of a set of inline functions designed to provide type conversions and perform validity checks with minimal impact on performance.
