I see the allow unsafe code option in .NET. Only one of my apps have it set so i can copy an image to a bitmap quickly.
Will there be limitations now that i checked off that box? mono seems to run it fine on linux. I dont see any problems so far.

1"so i can copy an image to a bitmap quickly." - do you really need to resort to unsafe? – Mitch Wheat Jul 12 '10 at 11:10

@Mitch Wheat: I dont see any other way to use IntPtr which is the only var it gives me to access the bitamp – Jul 12 '10 at 11:13

A possible limitation is that your code can run only in full trust.

What do you mean by full trust? when i run the exe on a strange comp it runs fine on a restricted user. – Jul 12 '10 at 11:14

2It means that it requires Full Trust permission which most hosting providers don't give. Of course if you are running this on a client computer where you have access this will be no problem at all for you. But I wouldn't make a reusable library component which you give to people out of this. – Darin Dimitrov Jul 12 '10 at 11:19
