ReadDouble method

This method reads 8 bytes from the Message Data buffer, starting with the byte referred to by DataOffset and returns it as a Double (signed 8-byte) floating point value.

The method fails if MQMessage.DataLength is less than 8 when it is issued.

DataOffset is incremented by 8 and DataLength is decremented by 8 if the method succeeds.

The 8 characters of message data are assumed to be a binary floating point number whose encoding is specified by the MQMessage.Encoding property. Note that conversion from System/360 format is not supported.
