+Summary: Error in Convert.ToString(value, base)
+
+Description of Problem:
+ 
+The specification says for Convert.ToString(int, int):
+
+"Converts the value of a 32-bit signed integer to its equivalent String 
+representation in a specified base"
+
+Doesn't happen, always tries to convert to base 10 from specified base. 
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+Run this code
+
+short tmpShort = 1234;
+int tmpInt = 12345;
+long tmpLong = 123456;
+
+Console.WriteLine(Convert.ToString(tmpShort, 2));			
+Console.WriteLine(Convert.ToString(tmpShort, 8));
+Console.WriteLine(Convert.ToString(tmpShort, 16));
+Console.WriteLine(Convert.ToString(tmpInt, 2));			
+Console.WriteLine(Convert.ToString(tmpInt, 8));
+Console.WriteLine(Convert.ToString(tmpInt, 16));
+Console.WriteLine(Convert.ToString(tmpLong, 2));			
+Console.WriteLine(Convert.ToString(tmpLong, 8));
+Console.WriteLine(Convert.ToString(tmpLong, 16));
