Hi,

Probably a simple question: how to convert a signed int to an unsigned int?

My applets gets a string value holding a 16-bits integer value. Before I 
want to display it, this value needs to be converted to an unsigned int(16 
bits) and then back in a string. So the input string "32767" becomes 
"65535".
I thought the conversion would be this,
    uint16    = int16 * 2 +1
but I'm not sure though

Greetings,
Rick
