Pointer Conversion

What does conversion do?

Conversions between two pointer types never change the actual pointer value. In other words, a conversion from one pointer type to another has no effect on the underlying address given by the pointer.

Implicit Conversion

• Any pointer type to void*.
• null to any pointer type.

Explicit Conversion

• sbyte, byte, short, ushort, int, uint, long, or ulong to any pointer type.
• any pointer type to any other pointer type.
• any pointer type to sbyte, byte, short, ushort, int, uint, long, or ulong.
