Thread Safety

This type is safe for multithreaded operations.

Remarks

The UIntPtr type is designed to be an implementation-sized pointer. An instance of this type is expected to be the size of a native unsigned int for the current implementation.

For more information on the native unsigned int type, see Partition II of the CLI Specification.

Note:

UIntPtr instances can also be used to hold handles.

The IntPtr type is CLS-compliant while the UIntPtr type is not. The UIntPtr type is provided mostly to maintain architectural symmetry with the IntPtr type.
