Invert bits in a UShort

[Peter Aitken]

I want to invert all the bits (all 0s to 1s, all 1s to 0s) in a type
ushort. I though I would use the complement operator ~ but the compiler
won't buy it. How can I do this?

Thanks,

Is this what you want:
ushort u1 = 55;
ushort u2 = (ushort) ~u1;

This seems to work for me....

public static void Main()
{
UInt16 a = 0x55;
UInt16 b = (ushort) ~a;
Console.WriteLine("A={0:x}, b={1:x}", a, b);
}

That's it! Thanks.
