VB.NET Core Classes in a Nutshell

Name

ArrayWithOffset

Synopsis

This class converts an array of value type instances to an unmanaged array. Your unmanaged code accesses this array as a pointer that initially points to the first array element. Each time the pointer increments, it points to the next element in the array. The constructor takes a mandatory offset argument that specifies which element should be the first element in the unmanaged array. If you want to pass the whole array, specify an offset of zero.
