Marshal.ZeroFreeCoTaskMemAnsi(IntPtr) Method

Definition

Frees an unmanaged string pointer that was allocated using the SecureStringToCoTaskMemAnsi(SecureString) method.

public:
 static void ZeroFreeCoTaskMemAnsi(IntPtr s);
[System.Security.SecurityCritical]
public static void ZeroFreeCoTaskMemAnsi (IntPtr s);
public static void ZeroFreeCoTaskMemAnsi (IntPtr s);
[<System.Security.SecurityCritical>]
static member ZeroFreeCoTaskMemAnsi : nativeint -> unit
static member ZeroFreeCoTaskMemAnsi : nativeint -> unit
Public Shared Sub ZeroFreeCoTaskMemAnsi (s As IntPtr)

Parameters

s
IntPtr

nativeint

The address of the unmanaged string to free.

Attributes

Examples

The following example uses the SecureStringToCoTaskMemAnsi method to marshal and decrypt the contents of a SecureString object to a block of unmanaged memory. It then uses the ZeroFreeCoTaskMemAnsi method to zero out and dispose the unmanaged block.

using System;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
using System.Security;

class MarshalExample
{
     static void Main()
     {
         IntPtr unmanagedRef = IntPtr.Zero;

          // Ask the user for a password.
          Console.Write("Please enter your password: ");

          SecureString passWord = GetPassword();

          Console.WriteLine("Copying and decrypting the string to unmanaged memory...");

          // Copy the Secure string to unmanaged memory (and decrypt it).
          unmanagedRef = Marshal.SecureStringToCoTaskMemAnsi(passWord);

          if (unmanagedRef != IntPtr.Zero)
          {
              Console.WriteLine("Zeroing out unmanaged memory...");

              Marshal.ZeroFreeCoTaskMemAnsi(unmanagedRef);
          }
          passWord.Dispose();

         Console.WriteLine("Done.");
     }

     public static SecureString GetPassword()
     {
         SecureString password = new SecureString();

         // get the first character of the password
         ConsoleKeyInfo nextKey = Console.ReadKey(true);

         while (nextKey.Key != ConsoleKey.Enter)
         {
             if (nextKey.Key == ConsoleKey.Backspace)
             {
                 if (password.Length > 0)
                 {
                     password.RemoveAt(password.Length - 1);

                     // erase the last * as well
                     Console.Write(nextKey.KeyChar);
                     Console.Write(" ");
                     Console.Write(nextKey.KeyChar);
                 }
             }
             else
             {
                 password.AppendChar(nextKey.KeyChar);
                 Console.Write("*");
             }

             nextKey = Console.ReadKey(true);
         }

         Console.WriteLine();

         // lock the password down
         password.MakeReadOnly();

Module Example
    Sub Main()
        Dim unmanagedRef As IntPtr

         Dim passWord As SecureString = GetPassword()

         Console.WriteLine("Copying and decrypting the string to unmanaged memory...")

         ' Copy the Secure string to unmanaged memory (and decrypt it).
         unmanagedRef = Marshal.SecureStringToCoTaskMemAnsi(passWord)

         If unmanagedRef <> IntPtr.Size Then
             Console.WriteLine("Zeroing out unmanaged memory...")
             Marshal.ZeroFreeCoTaskMemAnsi(unmanagedRef)
         End If
         passWord.Dispose()

        Console.WriteLine("Done.")
    End Sub



    Function GetPassword() As SecureString
        Dim password As New SecureString()

        ' get the first character of the password
        Dim nextKey As ConsoleKeyInfo = Console.ReadKey(True)

        While nextKey.Key <> ConsoleKey.Enter
            If nextKey.Key = ConsoleKey.BackSpace Then
                If password.Length > 0 Then
                    password.RemoveAt(password.Length - 1)

                    ' erase the last * as well
                    Console.Write(nextKey.KeyChar)
                    Console.Write(" ")
                    Console.Write(nextKey.KeyChar)
                End If
            Else
                password.AppendChar(nextKey.KeyChar)
                Console.Write("*")
            End If

            nextKey = Console.ReadKey(True)
        End While

        Console.WriteLine()

        ' lock the password down
        password.MakeReadOnly()
        Return password

    End Function
End Module

Remarks

The ZeroFreeCoTaskMemAnsi method first zeros out and then frees unmanaged memory that was allocated using the SecureStringToCoTaskMemAnsi method.
