Why do you need sbytes? Most of the .Net framework functions use bytes, not sbytes.

Why on earth are you converting a string to SByte?? Nothing that handles character data should ever need a mathematically Signed Byte for characters.

Solution 2

First convert the String to Byte. Then convert Byte to SByte.

byte[] abyte1 = new byte[4];
System.Text.ASCIIEncoding encoding = new System.Text.ASCIIEncoding();
abyte1 = encoding.GetBytes(s1);

sbyte[] sbytes = Array.ConvertAll(abyte1, q => Convert.ToSByte(q));

Reread the code, it creates a byte[] only as a temporary intermediate to creating the sbyte[].
