I'm trying to map the IL code for ASP.CORE method ReadUnaligned as defined here in .NET Frameword using DynamicMethod following this example.
When trying to run the code, I get the "Common Language Runtime detected an invalid program." error.
My code:
private delegate T ReadUnalignedInvoker<T>(ref byte input);
private delegate TReturn OneParameter<TReturn, TParameter0>(TParameter0 p0);
public static T ReadUnaligned<T, U>(U source)
{
Type[] methodArgsTypes = { typeof(U) };
var dm = new DynamicMethod("ReadUnaligned", typeof(T), methodArgsTypes, typeof(SizeHelper).Module);
ILGenerator il = dm.GetILGenerator();
il.Emit(OpCodes.Ldarg_0);
il.Emit(OpCodes.Unaligned, (byte)0x1);
il.Emit(OpCodes.Ldobj);
il.Emit(OpCodes.Ret);
OneParameter<T, U> invoker = (OneParameter<T, U>)dm.CreateDelegate(typeof(OneParameter<T, U>));
return invoker(source);
}
The call to the method is:
var buffer = new byte[Unsafe.SizeOf<TStructure>()];
ReadProcessMemory(_processHandle, baseAddress, ref buffer[0], buffer.Length, out var numberOfBytesRead);
ReadUnaligned<TStructure, byte>(buffer[0]);
Where ReadProcessMemory is taken from kernel32.dll
[DllImport("kernel32.dll", SetLastError = true)]
internal static extern bool ReadProcessMemory(SafeProcessHandle processHandle, IntPtr baseAddress, ref byte buffer, int bufferSize, out int numberOfBytesRead);
Any idea what I'm doing wrong?
