Syntax

public class ptr<T>
where T : struct, new()

Public Class ptr(Of T As {Structure, New})

public ref class ptr

type ptr<'T when 'T : struct, new()> =  class end

The ptrT type exposes the following members.

Constructors

	Name	Description
	ptrT	Creates a new pointer with default value.
	ptrT(T)	Creates a new pointer with Value set to value.

Methods

	Name	Description
	Equals	Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	Finalize	Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetHashCode	Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
	MemberwiseClone	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	ToString	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)

Fields

	Name	Description
	Value	The value that is "pointed to".

Remarks

Mimics the C address-of (&) construct to pass the address of a value type variable to a function of the GMP library.

Note that this is only for value types. Strings and arrays have their own "pointer" types defined with names ending in _ptr.
