Shifts an integer value to the left (in zeroes) by a specified number of bits, pushing the result onto the evaluation stack.
The following table lists the instruction's hexadecimal and Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL) assembly format, along with a brief reference summary:
62 |
shl |
Shifts an integer to the left (shifting in zeros). |
The stack transitional behavior, in sequential order, is:
[The 'ordered' type of list has not been implemented in the ECMA stylesheet.]The shl instruction shifts the value (type int32, int64 or native int) left by the specified number of bits. The number of bits is a value of type int32 or native int. The return value is unspecified if the number of bits to be shifted is greater than or equal to the width (in bits) of the supplied value.
Shl inserts a zero bit in the lowest position on each shift.
The following ILGenerator.Emit(OpCode) method overload can use the shl opcode:
