Readme - Code Samples for Chapter 5, Managed and Unmanaged Resources

This chapter contains the following code samples:

• DisposableSample (IDisposable interface, using statement, finalizer)
• PointerPlayground (using pointers with C#, unsafe keyword)
• PointerPlayground2 (adding a struct)
• QuickArray (quick sorting using pointers, stackalloc keyword)
• PlatformInvokeSample (invoking native methods from C#)

The PlatformInvokeSample requires Windows because of the native method invoked, all other samples run on Windows and Linux.

To build and run the .NET Core samples, please install

• Visual Studio 2017 with the .NET Core workload

Please download and install the tools from .NET Core downloads.
