Hertzole.ArrayPoolScope 1.1.0

Array Pool Scope

Array Pool Scope allows you to use ArrayPool in a scope-like manner.

💨 Quick Start

using Hertzole.Buffers;

int length = 10;
// Use a using statement to automatically return the array to the pool.
using (ArrayPoolScope<int> pool = new ArrayPoolScope<int>(length))
{
    // For loop
    for (int i = 0; i < pool.Count; i++)
    {
        pool.Array[i] = i;
        Console.WriteLine(pool.Array[i]);
    }

    // Foreach loop
    foreach (int item in pool)
    {
        Console.WriteLine(item);
    }
}

// Manully return the array to the pool.
ArrayPoolScope<int> pool = new ArrayPoolScope<int>(length);
pool.Dispose();

// Provide your own pool.
ArrayPool<int> customPool = ArrayPool<int>.Create();
using ArrayPoolScope<int> pool = new ArrayPoolScope<int>(length, customPool);

// Get directly from pool.
using ArrayPoolScope<int> pool = ArrayPool<int>.Shared.RentScope(length);

// As span and memory.
using ArrayPoolScope<int> pool = ArrayPool<int>.Shared.RentScope(length);
Span<int> span = pool.AsSpan();
Memory<int> memory = pool.AsMemory();

// Get the array directly if needed. (you should avoid this, unless you really need the array)
using ArrayPoolScope<int> pool = ArrayPool<int>.Shared.RentScope(length);
int[] array = UnsafeArrayPool.GetArray(pool);
