<member name="T:System.Reflection.Internal.EncodingHelper">

<summary>

Provides helpers to decode strings from unmanaged memory to System.String while avoiding

intermediate allocation.

This has three components:

(1) Light-up Encoding.GetString(byte*, int) via reflection and resurface it as extension

method.

This is a new API that will provide API convergence across all platforms for

this scenario. It is already on .NET 4.5.3+ and ASP.NET vNext, but not yet available

on every platform we support. See below for how we fall back.

(2) Deal with WinRT prefixes.

When reading managed winmds with projections enabled, the metadata reader needs to prepend

a WinRT prefix in some case . Doing this without allocation poses a problem

as we don't have the prefix and input in contiguous data that we can pass to the

Encoding.GetString. We handle this case using pooled managed scratch buffers where we copy

the prefix and input and decode using Encoding.GetString(byte[], int, int).

(3) Deal with platforms that don't yet have Encoding.GetString(byte*, int).

If we're running on a full framework earlier than 4.5.3, we will bind to the internal

String.CreateStringFromEncoding which is equivalent and Encoding.GetString is just a trivial

wrapper around it in .NET 4.5.3. This means that we always have the fast path on every

full framework version we support.

If we can't bind to it via reflection, then we emulate it using what is effectively (2) and

with an empty prefix.

For both (2) and (3), the pooled buffers have a fixed size deemed large enough for the

vast majority of metadata strings. In the rare worst case (byteCount > threshold and

(lightUpAttemptFailed || prefix != null), we give up and allocate a temporary array,

copy to it, decode, and throw it away.

<member name="T:System.Reflection.Internal.ImmutableByteArrayInterop">

<summary>

Provides tools for using <see cref="T:System.Collections.Immutable.ImmutableArray`1"/> in interop scenarios.

</summary>

<remarks>

*** WARNING ***

If you decide to copy this code elsewhere, please retain the documentation here

and the Dangerous prefixes in the API names. This will help track down and audit

other places where this technique (with dangerous consequences when misused) may

be applied.

A generic version of this API was once public in a pre-release of immutable

collections, but it was deemed to be too subject to abuse when available publicly.

This implementation is scoped to byte arrays as that is all that the metadata reader needs.

Also, since we don't have access to immutable collection internals, we use a trick involving

overlapping a <see cref="T:System.Collections.Immutable.ImmutableArray`1"/> with a <see cref="T:Byte[]"/> refer. While

unverifiable, it is valid. See Ecma 335, section II.10.7 Controlling instance layout:

"It is possible to overlap fields in this way, though offsets occupied by an object reference

shall not overlap with offsets occupied by a built-in value type or a part of

another object reference. While one object reference can completely overlap another, this is

unverifiable."

Furthermore, the fact that <see cref="T:System.Collections.Immutable.ImmutableArray`1"/> backed by a single <see cref="T:Byte[]"/>

field is something inherent to the design of ImmutableArray in order to get its performance

characteristics and therefore something we (Microsoft) are comfortable defining as a contract that

can be depended upon as below.

<member name="M:System.Reflection.Internal.ImmutableByteArrayInterop.DangerousCreateFromUnderlyingArray(System.Byte[]@)">

<summary>

Creates a new instance of <see cref="T:System.Collections.Immutable.ImmutableArray`1"/> using a given mutable array as the backing

references exist to the array. Do not mutate the array after calling this method.

</summary>

<param name="array">The mutable array to use as the backing field. The incoming reference is set to null

since it should not be retained by the caller.</param>

<remarks>

Users of this method should take extra care to ensure that the mutable array given as a parameter

is never modified. The returned <see cref="T:System.Collections.Immutable.ImmutableArray`1"/> will use the given array as its backing

field without creating a defensive copy, so changes made to the given mutable array will be observable

on the returned <see cref="T:System.Collections.Immutable.ImmutableArray`1"/>. Instance and static methods of <see cref="T:System.Collections.Immutable.ImmutableArray`1"/>

<member name="T:System.Reflection.Internal.ObjectPool`1">

<summary>

Generic implementation of object pooling pattern with predefined pool size limit. The main

purpose is that limited number of frequently used objects can be kept in the pool for

further recycling.

Notes:

1) it is not the goal to keep all returned objects. Pool is not meant for storage. If there

is no space in the pool, extra returned objects will be dropped.

2) it is implied that if object was obtained from a pool, the caller will return it back in

a relatively short time. Keeping checked out objects for long durations is ok, but

reduces usefulness of pooling. Just new up your own.

Not returning objects to the pool in not detrimental to the pool's work, but is a bad practice.

Rationale:

If there is no intent for reusing the object, do not use pool - just use "new".
