Contains types used in creating and managing memory buffers, such as those represented by Span<T> and Memory<T>.

Classes

ArrayBufferWriter<T>	Represents a heap-based, array-backed output sink into which `T` data can be written.
ArrayPool<T>	Provides a resource pool that enables reusing instances of type T[].
BuffersExtensions	Provides extension methods for ReadOnlySequence<T>.
MemoryManager<T>	An abstract base class that is used to replace the implementation of Memory<T>.
MemoryPool<T>	Represents a pool of memory blocks.
ReadOnlySequenceSegment<T>	Represents a linked list of ReadOnlyMemory<T> nodes.
SearchValues	Provides a set of initialization methods for instances of the SearchValues<T> class.
SearchValues<T>	Provides an immutable, read-only set of values optimized for efficient searching. Instances are created by Create(ReadOnlySpan<Byte>) or Create(ReadOnlySpan<Char>).
SequenceReaderExtensions	Provides extended functionality for the SequenceReader<T> class that allows reading of endian specific numeric values from binary data.

Structs

MemoryHandle	Provides a memory handle for a block of memory.
NIndex	Represent a type can be used to index a collection either from the start or the end.
NRange	Represent a range that has start and end indices.
ReadOnlySequence<T>.Enumerator	Represents an enumerator over a ReadOnlySequence<T>.
ReadOnlySequence<T>	Represents a sequence that can read a sequential series of `T`.
SequenceReader<T>	Provides methods for reading binary and text data out of a ReadOnlySequence<T> with a focus on performance and minimal or zero heap allocations.
StandardFormat	Represents a standard format string without using an actual string.

Interfaces

IBufferWriter<T>	Represents an output sink into which `T` data can be written.
IMemoryOwner<T>	Identifies the owner of a block of memory who is responsible for disposing of the underlying memory appropriately.
IPinnable	Provides a mechanism for pinning and unpinning objects to prevent the garbage collector from moving them.

Enums

OperationStatus

Defines the values that can be returned from span-based operations that support processing of input contained in multiple discontiguous buffers.

Delegates

ReadOnlySpanAction<T,TArg>	Encapsulates a method that receives a read-only span of objects of type `T` and a state object of type `TArg`.
SpanAction<T,TArg>	Encapsulates a method that receives a span of objects of type `T` and a state object of type `TArg`.
