Reads a processor native-sized integer from unmanaged memory.
Syntax
[System.Runtime.ConstrainedExecution.ReliabilityContract(System.Runtime.ConstrainedExecution.Consistency.WillNotCorruptState, System.Runtime.ConstrainedExecution.Cer.Success)]
public static IntPtr ReadIntPtr (IntPtr ptr)
public static IntPtr ReadIntPtr (IntPtr ptr)
Parameters
- ptr
Returns
The integer read from unmanaged memory. A 32 bit integer is returned on 32 bit machines and a 64 bit integer is returned on 64 bit machines.
Remarks
Marshal.ReadIntPtr(object, int) has an implied offset of 0. This method enables direct interaction with an unmanaged C-style IntPtr array, eliminating the expense of copying an entire unmanaged array (using Marshal.Copy(Int32[], int, IntPtr, int)) to a separate managed array before reading its element values.
Reading from unaligned memory locations is supported.
