I have found that this is happening only when I try to get the method pointer for generic static methods in BCL. The same does not occur if I create my own static class, with a static generic method.

A critical tool when developing an embedded system in C is an understanding of how pointers work. Misunderstanding pointer fundamentals can result in long hours spent debugging a system or a hidden ...

Once we hit the breakpoint, fnptr will have a top byte tag and a pointer signature. The top byte tag isn't a problem because the hardware will ignore it (I'm on AArch64 with Top Byte Ignore enabled), ...

Function pointers can be used for a wide variety of applications including the implementation of state machines. Just like any tool, it may not always be appropriate to use function pointers for a ...

So after a long painful journey tonight of trying to serialize a function pointer, I began to wonder. After seeing the code with a bunch of reinterpret_cast<>() calls, I got to wondering -- how does ...

In the first part of this series, we covered the basics of pointers in C, and went on to more complex arrangements and pointer arithmetic in the second part. Both times, we focused solely on pointers ...

First off, I'll have coded a workaround before you read this. But now I've got a bee up my bu, errr, bonnett.<BR><BR>I'm writing test code in C, and I need 100 pointers to (unique) functions. I'm ...
