Attributes

Exceptions

Examples

The following example demonstrates how to read and write to an unmanaged array using the ReadInt16 and WriteInt16 methods.

static void ReadWriteInt16()
{
    // Allocate unmanaged memory. 
    int elementSize = 2;
    IntPtr unmanagedArray = Marshal.AllocHGlobal(10 * elementSize);

    // Set the 10 elements of the C-style unmanagedArray
    for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
    {
        Marshal.WriteInt16(unmanagedArray, i * elementSize, ((Int16)(i + 1)));
    }
    Console.WriteLine("Unmanaged memory written.");

    Console.WriteLine("Reading unmanaged memory:");
    // Print the 10 elements of the C-style unmanagedArray
    for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
    {
        Console.WriteLine(Marshal.ReadInt16(unmanagedArray, i * elementSize));
    }

    Marshal.FreeHGlobal(unmanagedArray);

    Console.WriteLine("Done. Press Enter to continue.");
    Console.ReadLine();
}
Sub ReadWriteInt16()
    ' Allocate unmanaged memory. 
    Dim elementSize As Integer = 2
    Dim unmanagedArray As IntPtr = Marshal.AllocHGlobal(10 * elementSize)

    ' Set the 10 elements of the C-style unmanagedArray
    For i As Integer = 0 To 9
        Marshal.WriteInt16(unmanagedArray, i * elementSize, CType(i + 1, Int16))
    Next i
    Console.WriteLine("Unmanaged memory written.")

    Console.WriteLine("Reading unmanaged memory:")
    ' Print the 10 elements of the C-style unmanagedArray
    For i As Integer = 0 To 9
        Console.WriteLine(Marshal.ReadInt16(unmanagedArray, i * elementSize))
    Next i

    Marshal.FreeHGlobal(unmanagedArray)

    Console.WriteLine("Done. Press Enter to continue.")
    Console.ReadLine()
End Sub

The following example demonstrates how to use the ReadInt16 method to read the value of an unmanaged short variable.


using namespace System;
using namespace System::Runtime::InteropServices;



void main()
{
    // Create an unmanaged short.
    short myShort = 42;

    // Read the short as a managed Int16.
        Int16 ^ myManagedVal = Marshal::ReadInt16((IntPtr) &myShort);

    // Display the value to the console.
    Console::WriteLine(myManagedVal);
}

Remarks

ReadInt16 has an implied offset of 0. This method enables direct interaction with an unmanaged C-style Int16 array, eliminating the expense of copying an entire unmanaged array (using Marshal.Copy) to a separate managed array before reading its element values.

Reading from unaligned memory locations is supported.

The following example demonstrates how to use the ReadInt16 method to read the value of an unmanaged short variable.


using namespace System;

void main()
{
    // Create an unmanaged short pointer.
    short * myShort;
    short tmp = 42;
    // Initialize it to another value.
    myShort = &tmp;

    // Read value as a managed Int16.
    Int16 ^ myManagedVal = Marshal::ReadInt16((IntPtr) myShort, 0);

    // Display the value to the console.
    Console::WriteLine(myManagedVal);
}
