Remarks
The following table lists the instruction's hexadecimal and Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL) assembly format, along with a brief reference summary:

ldelema class |
Loads the address of the array element at index onto the top of the evaluation stack as type & (managed pointer). |
The stack transitional behavior, in sequential order, is:
An object reference
array
is pushed onto the stack.An index value
index
is pushed onto the stack.index
andarray
are popped from the stack; the address stored at positionindex
inarray
is looked up.The address is pushed onto the stack.
The ldelema
is used to retrieve the address of an object at a particular index in an array of objects (of type class
). The ldelema
instruction loads the address of the value at index index
(type native int
) in the zero-based one-dimensional array array
and places it on the top of the stack. Arrays are objects and hence represented by a value of type O
. The value must be of type class
passed with the instruction.
The return value for ldelema
is a managed pointer (type &
).
Note that integer values of less than 4 bytes are extended to int32
(not native int
) when they are loaded onto the evaluation stack.
NullReferenceException is thrown if array
is a null reference.
ArrayTypeMismatchException is thrown if array
does not hold elements of the required type.
IndexOutOfRangeException is thrown if index
is negative, or larger than the bound of array
.
The following Emit method overload can use the ldelema
opcode:
