Reads a single byte at a given offset (or index) from unmanaged memory.

public:
 static System::Byte ReadByte(IntPtr ptr, int ofs);
[System.Security.SecurityCritical]
public static byte ReadByte (IntPtr ptr, int ofs);
public static byte ReadByte (IntPtr ptr, int ofs);
[<System.Security.SecurityCritical>]
static member ReadByte : nativeint * int -> byte
static member ReadByte : nativeint * int -> byte
Public Shared Function ReadByte (ptr As IntPtr, ofs As Integer) As Byte

Parameters

ptr
IntPtr

nativeint

The base address in unmanaged memory from which to read.

ofs
Int32

An additional byte offset, which is added to the ptr parameter before reading.

Returns

The byte read from unmanaged memory at the given offset.

Attributes

Exceptions

Base address (ptr) plus offset byte (ofs) produces a null or invalid address.

Examples

The following example demonstrates how to read and write to an unmanaged array using the ReadByte and WriteByte methods.

static void ReadWriteByte()
{
    // Allocate unmanaged memory. 
    int elementSize = 1;
    IntPtr unmanagedArray = Marshal.AllocHGlobal(10 * elementSize);

    // Set the 10 elements of the C-style unmanagedArray
    for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
    {
        Marshal.WriteByte(unmanagedArray, i * elementSize, ((Byte)(i + 1)));
    }
    Console.WriteLine("Unmanaged memory written.");

    Console.WriteLine("Reading unmanaged memory:");
    // Print the 10 elements of the C-style unmanagedArray
    for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
    {
        Console.WriteLine(Marshal.ReadByte(unmanagedArray, i * elementSize));
    }

    Marshal.FreeHGlobal(unmanagedArray);

    Console.WriteLine("Done. Press Enter to continue.");
    Console.ReadLine();
}
Sub ReadWriteByte()
    ' Allocate unmanaged memory. 
    Dim elementSize As Integer = 1
    Dim unmanagedArray As IntPtr = Marshal.AllocHGlobal(10 * elementSize)

    ' Set the 10 elements of the C-style unmanagedArray
    For i As Integer = 0 To 9
        Marshal.WriteByte(unmanagedArray, i * elementSize, CType(i + 1, Byte))
    Next i
    Console.WriteLine("Unmanaged memory written.")

    Console.WriteLine("Reading unmanaged memory:")
    ' Print the 10 elements of the C-style unmanagedArray
    For i As Integer = 0 To 9
        Console.WriteLine(Marshal.ReadByte(unmanagedArray, i * elementSize))
    Next i

    Marshal.FreeHGlobal(unmanagedArray)

    Console.WriteLine("Done. Press Enter to continue.")
    Console.ReadLine()
End Sub

The following example demonstrates how to use the ReadByte method to read the value of an unmanaged character.


using namespace System;
using namespace System::Runtime::InteropServices;



void main()
{
    // Create an unmanaged byte.
    const char * myString = "bB";

    // Read the second character of the c string as a managed byte.
        Byte ^ myManagedByte = Marshal::ReadByte((IntPtr) (char *) myString, 1);

    // Display the byte to the console.
    Console::WriteLine(myManagedByte);
}

Remarks

ReadByte enables direct interaction with an unmanaged C-style byte array, eliminating the expense of copying an entire unmanaged array (using Marshal.Copy) to a separate managed array before reading its element values.

Reading from unaligned memory locations is supported.

Public Shared Function ReadByte (ptr As Object, ofs As Integer) As Byte

Parameters

ptr
Object

The base address in unmanaged memory of the source object.

ofs
Int32

An additional byte offset, which is added to the ptr parameter before reading.

Returns

The byte read from unmanaged memory at the given offset.

Attributes

Exceptions

Base address (ptr) plus offset byte (ofs) produces a null or invalid address.

ptr is an ArrayWithOffset object. This method does not accept ArrayWithOffset parameters.

Examples

The following example creates a block of unmanaged memory, writes a byte to the unmanaged memory, reads the byte back from unmanaged memory, and then disposes the unmanaged memory.

using System;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;

 class Example
 {
     static void Main(string[] args)
     {
          // Allocate 1 byte of unmanaged memory.
          IntPtr hGlobal = Marshal.AllocHGlobal(1);

          // Create a new byte.
          byte b = 1;
          Console.WriteLine("Byte written to unmanaged memory: " + b);

          // Write the byte to unmanaged memory.
          Marshal.WriteByte(hGlobal, b);

          // Read byte from unmanaged memory.
          byte c = Marshal.ReadByte(hGlobal);
          Console.WriteLine("Byte read from unmanaged memory: " + c);

          // Free the unmanaged memory.
          Marshal.FreeHGlobal(hGlobal);
          Console.WriteLine("Unmanaged memory was disposed.");
     }
}
Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices

Module Example
    Sub Main()
         ' Allocate 1 byte of unmanaged memory.
         Dim hGlobal As IntPtr = Marshal.AllocHGlobal(1)
         
         ' Create a new byte.
         Dim b As Byte = 1
         
         Console.WriteLine("Byte written to unmanaged memory: {0}", b)
         
         ' Write the byte to unmanaged memory.
         Marshal.WriteByte(hGlobal, b)
         
         ' Read byte from unmanaged memory.
         Dim c As Byte = Marshal.ReadByte(hGlobal)
         Console.WriteLine("Byte read from unmanaged memory: {0}", c)
         
         ' Free the unmanaged memory.
         Marshal.FreeHGlobal(hGlobal)
         Console.WriteLine("Unmanaged memory was disposed.")
    End Sub
End Module

The following example demonstrates how to use the ReadByte method to read the value of an unmanaged character.


using namespace System;
using namespace System::Runtime::InteropServices;



void main()
{
    // Create an unmanaged byte.
    const char * myString = "b";

    // Read the c string as a managed byte.
        Byte ^ myManagedByte = Marshal::ReadByte((IntPtr) (char *) myString);

    // Display the byte to the console.
    Console::WriteLine(myManagedByte);
}

Remarks

ReadByte has an implied offset of 0. This method enables direct interaction with an unmanaged C-style byte array, eliminating the expense of copying an entire unmanaged array (using Marshal.Copy) to a separate managed array before reading its element values.

Reading from unaligned memory locations is supported.
