System.Runtime.CompilerServices.Unsafe Polyfill for .NET Framework 4.0

Nuget Azure DevOps builds (main) GitHub GitHub Sponsors

Provides the System.Runtime.CompilerServices.Unsafe class, which provides generic, low-level functionality for manipulating pointers.

Commonly Used Types:

  • System.Runtime.CompilerServices.Unsafe

This package adds support for System.Runtime.CompilerServices.Unsafe on .NET Framework 4.0.

This is a compilation using the System.Runtime.CompilerServices.Unsafe source code from .NET Core 6.0.28. All tests are passing.

This is not meant to be an upgrade to System.Runtime.CompilerServices.Unsafe 6.0.0, it is simply to add support on the net40 target for all of the existing APIs in System.Runtime.CompilerServices.Unsafe 6.0.0. It is recommended to use the official release of System.Runtime.CompilerServices.Unsafe on newer versions of .NET.

Interop with System.Runtime.CompilerServices.Unsafe on Targets > net40

Since the runtime for net40 hasn't been supported for many years, most likely you will be using a newer runtime with this library. But you may be interoperating with other components that target System.Runtime.CompilerServices.Unsafe, which will cause type collisions by default.

In this case, it is recommended to remove System.Runtime.CompilerServices.Unsafe from compilation and add NetFx.System.Runtime.CompilerServices.Unsafe in its place. Add the following to your .csproj or .vbproj file. This example is for using net452.

  <ItemGroup Condition=" '$(TargetFramework)' == 'net452' ">
    
    <PackageReference Include="System.Runtime.CompilerServices.Unsafe"
                      Version="6.0.0"
                      ExcludeAssets="compile;runtime" />
    <PackageReference Include="NetFx.System.Runtime.CompilerServices.Unsafe"
                      Version="4.0.0" />
  </ItemGroup>

NOTE: Only SDK-style projects are supported using this method.

For transitive dependencies (that is, dependencies that are not directly referenced) that have a net40 target, consider forcing a specific target framework.
