[Android.Runtime.Register("toByteArray", "()[B", "", ApiSince=24)]
public byte[]? ToByteArray ();
[<Android.Runtime.Register("toByteArray", "()[B", "", ApiSince=24)>]
member this.ToByteArray : unit -> byte[]

Returns

Byte[]

CollationKey value in a sequence of big-endian byte bytes terminated by a null.

Attributes
RegisterAttribute

Remarks

Duplicates and returns the value of this CollationKey as a sequence of big-endian bytes terminated by a null.

If two CollationKeys can be legitimately compared, then one can compare the byte arrays of each to obtain the same result, e.g.

byte key1[] = collationkey1.toByteArray();
            byte key2[] = collationkey2.toByteArray();
            int key, targetkey;
            int i = 0;
            do {
                  key = key1[i] &amp; 0xFF;
                targetkey = key2[i] &amp; 0xFF;
                if (key &lt; targetkey) {
                    System.out.println("String 1 is less than string 2");
                    return;
                }
                if (targetkey &lt; key) {
                    System.out.println("String 1 is more than string 2");
                }
                i ++;
            } while (key != 0 &amp;&amp; targetKey != 0);

            System.out.println("Strings are equal.");
