IntPtr::IntPtr Constructor
Initializes a new instance of an IntPtr with the specified value.
Syntax
IntPtr( __int64 handle-or-pointer ); IntPtr( void* value ); IntPtr( int 32-bit_value );
Parameters
value
A 64-bit handle or pointer, or a pointer to a 64-bit value, or a 32-bit value that can be converted to a 64-bit value.
IntPtr::op_explicit Operator
Converts the specified parameter to an IntPtr or a pointer to an IntPtr value.
Syntax
static IntPtr::operator IntPtr( void* value1); static IntPtr::operator IntPtr( int value2); static IntPtr::operator void*( IntPtr value3 );
Parameters
value1
A pointer to a handle or IntPtr.
value2
A 32-bit integer that can be converted to an IntPtr.
value3
An IntPtr.
Return Value
The first and second operators return an IntPtr. The third operator returns a pointer to the value represented by the current IntPtr.
IntPtr::ToInt32 Method
Converts the current IntPtr value to a 32-bit integer.
Syntax
int32 IntPtr::ToInt32();
Return Value
