Allocates a copy of s on the system heap in the encoding encoding.

Parameters
- s
- A string to copy into the system heap.
- encoding
- A System.Text.Encoding specifying which encoding to marshal the string into.
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 ArgumentNullException encoding is null. NotSupportedException There was an error marshaling s into the specified encoding 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, 0, s.Length, UnixMarshal.Instance).
