Method GetLdftnPointer

Namespace

MonoMod.Utils

Assembly

MonoMod.Utils.dll

GetLdftnPointer(MethodBase)

Get a native function pointer for a given method. This matches an IL-level ldftn.

public static nint GetLdftnPointer(this MethodBase m)

Parameters

m MethodBase

The method to get a native function pointer for.

Returns

nint

The native function pointer.

Remarks

The result of ldftn doesn't always match that of MethodHandle.GetFunctionPointer(). For example, ldftn doesn't JIT-compile the method on mono, which thus keeps the class constructor untouched. And on .NET, struct overrides (f.e. ToString) have got multiple entry points pointing towards the same code.
