C# how to get Byte[] from IntPtr

If it's a byte[] array:

 byte[] managedArray = new byte[size];
 Marshal.Copy(pnt, managedArray, 0, size);

If it's not byte[], the size parameter in of Marshal.Copy is the number of elements in the array, not the byte size. So, if you had an int[] array rather than a byte[] array, you would have to divide by 4 (bytes per int) to get the correct number of elements to copy, assuming your size parameter passed through the callback refers to # of bytes.


Have you looked into Marshal.Copy?

If you need performance, use it directly:

unsafe { 
    byte *ptr = (byte *)buffer.ToPointer();

    int offset = 0;
    for (int i=0; i<height; i++)
    {
        for (int j=0; j<width; j++)
        {

            float b = (float)ptr[offset+0] / 255.0f;
            float g = (float)ptr[offset+1] / 255.0f;
            float r = (float)ptr[offset+2] / 255.0f;
            float a = (float)ptr[offset+3] / 255.0f;
            offset += 4;

            UnityEngine.Color color = new UnityEngine.Color(r, g, b, a);
            texture.SetPixel(j, height-i, color);
        }
    }
}
