Unsafe.ReadUnaligned Method

Definition

Namespace:

System.Runtime.CompilerServices

Assembly:

System.Runtime.dll

Overloads

ReadUnaligned<T>(Void*)	Reads a value of type T from the given location without assuming architecture dependent alignment of the source address.
ReadUnaligned<T>(Byte)	Reads a value of type T from the given address without assuming architecture dependent alignment of the source address.

ReadUnaligned<T>(Void*)

Source:

Unsafe.cs

Important

This API is not CLS-compliant.

Reads a value of type T from the given location without assuming architecture dependent alignment of the source address.

public:
generic <typename T>
 static T ReadUnaligned(void* source);

[System.CLSCompliant(false)]
public static T ReadUnaligned<T> (void* source);

[<System.CLSCompliant(false)>]
static member ReadUnaligned : nativeptr<unit> -> 'T

Type Parameters

T

The type of the value to read.

Parameters

source

Void*

An unmanaged pointer containing the address to read from.

Returns

T

A value of type T read from the given location.

Attributes

CLSCompliantAttribute

Remarks

Caution

The caller must ensure that there are SizeOf<T>() bytes of readable memory available starting at the location pointed to by source. Access violations may occur if this requirement is not met.

ReadUnaligned<T>(Byte)

Source:

Unsafe.cs

public static T ReadUnaligned<T> (ref byte source);

static member ReadUnaligned : byte -> 'T

Public Shared Function ReadUnaligned(Of T) (ByRef source As Byte) As T

Type Parameters

T

The type of the value to read.

Parameters

source

Byte

A managed pointer containing the address to read from.

Returns

T

A value of type T read from the given address.
