Definition

Namespace:

System.Buffers.Binary

Assemblies:

netstandard.dll, System.Memory.dll

Source:

BinaryPrimitives.ReadBigEndian.cs

Reads a IntPtr from the beginning of a read-only span of bytes, as big endian.

public:
 static bool TryReadIntPtrBigEndian(ReadOnlySpan<System::Byte> source, [Runtime::InteropServices::Out] IntPtr % value);

public static bool TryReadIntPtrBigEndian(ReadOnlySpan<byte> source, out IntPtr value);

static member TryReadIntPtrBigEndian : ReadOnlySpan<byte> * nativeint -> bool

Public Shared Function TryReadIntPtrBigEndian (source As ReadOnlySpan(Of Byte), ByRef value As IntPtr) As Boolean

Parameters

source

ReadOnlySpan<Byte>

The read-only span of bytes to read.

value

IntPtr

nativeint

When this method returns, contains the value read out of the read-only span of bytes, as big endian.

Returns

Boolean

false if the span is too small to contain a IntPtr; otherwise, true.

Remarks

Reads exactly 4 bytes on 32-bit platforms -or- 8 bytes on 64-bit platforms from the beginning of the span.
