Pointers in C# to make int array?
- by Joshua
The following C++ program compiles and runs as expected:
#include <stdio.h>
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
int* test = new int[10];
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
test[i] = i * 10;
printf("%d \n", test[5]); // 50
printf("%d \n", 5[test]); // 50
return getchar();
}
The closest C# simple example I could make for this question is:
using System;
class Program
{
unsafe static int Main(string[] args)
{
// error CS0029: Cannot implicitly convert type 'int[]' to 'int*'
int* test = new int[10];
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
test[i] = i * 10;
Console.WriteLine(test[5]); // 50
Console.WriteLine(5[test]); // Error
return (int)Console.ReadKey().Key;
}
}
So how do I make the pointer?
