How can I get ushort?

Question

ID = reader.GetInt16(2) //ID: ushort

Will give me the error Error

"Cannot implicitly convert type 'short' to 'ushort'. An explicit conversion exists (are you missing a cast?)".

What is the best practice to get the data without changing my property to short?

Answer 1

Like the error says, you can cast to ushort:

ID = (ushort) reader.GetInt16(2);
