UnixMarshal.FreeHeap

Parameters

s

A string to copy into the system heap.

index

A int containing the start index into s to start marshaling.

count

A int containing the number of characters to marshal from s starting at index index.

Returns

A IntPtr containing a pointer on the system heap containing the marshaled string. If s is null, then IntPtr.Zero is returned.

Exceptions

Type	Reason
ArgumentOutOfRangeException	count or index is less than zero. -or- index plus count is greater than the length of s.
NotSupportedException	There was an error marshaling s into the Mono.Unix.UnixEncoding encoding.
Mono.Unix.UnixIOException	Unable to allocate enough memory for the marshaled string. [Mono.Unix.Native.Errno.ENOMEM]

Remarks

The pointer returned should be freed with UnixMarshal.FreeHeap to avoid a memory leak.

This is identical to UnixMarshal.StringToHeap(s, count, index, UnixMarshal.Instance).
