Marshal.Copy Method (IntPtr, Single, Int32, Int32)
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
public: static void Copy ( IntPtr source, array<float>^ destination, int startIndex, int length )
public static function Copy ( source : IntPtr, destination : float, startIndex : int, length : int )
The memory pointer to copy from.
The array to copy to.
The zero-based index into the array where Copy should start.
The number of array elements to copy.
source, destination, startIndex, or length is a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).
Unmanaged, C-style arrays do not contain bounds information, which prevents the startIndex and length parameters from being validated. Thus, the unmanaged data corresponding to the source parameter populates the managed array regardless of its usefulness. You must initalize the managed array with the appropriate size before calling the Marshal.Copy method.
This method uses SecurityAction.LinkDemand to prevent it from being called from untrusted code; only the immediate caller is required to have SecurityPermissionAttribute.UnmanagedCode permission. If your code can be called from partially trusted code, do not pass user input to Marshal class methods without validation. For important limitations on using the LinkDemand member, see Demand vs. LinkDemand.
