Convert IntPtr to Array in C#

In C#, IntPtr cannot be directly converted to an array because IntPtr is a pointer type that represents a pointer to data of any type. To convert IntPtr to an array, you first need to determine the data type that the pointer is pointing to, and then use pointer arithmetic or methods provided by the Marshal class to copy the data into the array.

Here is an example code that converts IntPtr to an array of int type:

IntPtr intPtr = new IntPtr(); // 假设有一个IntPtr类型的对象

int[] array = new int[arrayLength]; // 创建一个int类型的数组，arrayLength为数组长度

unsafe
{
    int* ptr = (int*)intPtr.ToPointer(); // 将IntPtr转换为int类型的指针

    for (int i = 0; i < arrayLength; i++)
    {
        array[i] = *(ptr + i); // 通过指针运算将数据复制到数组中
    }
}

Please note that the “unsafe” keyword is used in the above code because it involves pointer operations, requiring the use of an unsafe code block. It is also important to ensure that the data type pointed to by IntPtr matches the data type of the target array, as otherwise it could lead to data corruption or type conversion errors.

If you are uncertain about the data type IntPtr is pointing to, you can use the methods provided by the Marshal class for conversion, such as using the Marshal.Copy method to copy the data pointed to by the pointer into an array. Please refer to MSDN documentation or other relevant resources for specific usage instructions.
