Visual Studio128
Hi All:



I have this line of code, but the syntax check in VB.NET 2003 and also in

VB.NET 2005 Beta 2 shows as unknown:



Dim local4 As Byte



Fixed(local4 = AddressOf dest(offset))



CType(local4, Short) = CType(src, Short)



Return



End Fixed



What is the "FIXED and END FIXED" and how the syntax error can be "fixed"

???



Thx,



Federico


-

well as far as i know the fixed keyword is used in C#

ACK, that's a C# feature which VB.NET doesn't contain.



Similar functionality can be archieved using 'GCHandle.AddrOfPinnedObject'.
