I have a old code in VB.Now I convert it into vb.net.There is a line in a code
Dim pCParameters As Integer
pCParameters = VarPtr(Parameters)
When I execute code the error occure that
Name 'VarPtr' is not declared.
VarPtr not supported in vb.net.So how I replace it.
This is not as straight forward because your variables in .NET are managed. To do exactly what you are asking you need to look at GCHandle.Alloc and pin the variable so it cannot be moved. Then you can get its memory address.
Something like this (from memory):
GCHandle handle = GCHandle.Alloc(pCParameters , Pinned )
IntPtr ptr = handle.AddressOfPinnedObject
Yes I found the answer.The new VarPtr function is
Public Function VarPtr(ByVal e As Object) As Integer
Dim GC As GCHandle = GCHandle.Alloc(e, GCHandleType.Pinned)
Dim GC2 As Integer = GC.AddrOfPinnedObject.ToInt32
GC.Free()
Return GC2
