NSArray Class

Definition

An untyped Objective-C array.

Remarks

Due to the loose typed nature of NSArray, it is not generally used or surfaced by most APIs. Instead, strongly typed C# arrays are surfaced to developers. This type is available in the binding for some low-level operations that require the use of the type directly.

Constructors

NSArray()

Default constructor that initializes a new instance of this class with no parameters.

NSArray(IntPtr)

A constructor used when creating managed representations of unmanaged objects; Called by the runtime.

NSArray(NSCoder)

A constructor that initializes the object from the data stored in the unarchiver object.

NSArray(NSObjectFlag)

Constructor to call on derived classes to skip initialization and merely allocate the object.
