UIntPtr.Add Method

.NET Framework 4.5

Other Versions

.NET Framework 4

Adds an offset to the value of an unsigned pointer.

Namespace: System
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

Syntax

C++

static member Add : 
        pointer:UIntPtr * 
        offset:int -> UIntPtr

Parameters

pointer: Type: System.UIntPtr
The unsigned pointer to add the offset to.

offset: Type: System.Int32
The offset to add.

Return Value

Type: System.UIntPtr
A new unsigned pointer that reflects the addition of offset to pointer.

Remarks

The Add method does not throw an exception if the result is too large to represent as a pointer on the specified platform. Instead, the addition operation is performed in an unchecked context.

Languages that do not support operator overloading or custom operators can use this method to add an offset to the value of an unsigned pointer.

Examples

The following example instantiates a UIntPtr object that points to the beginning of a ten-element array, and then calls the Add method to iterate the elements in the array.

No code example is currently available or this language may not be supported.
