SystemUtil

Description

static class Tinman.Core.SystemUtil

Provides static helper method for dealing with objects.

This class provides some helper methods, dealing with the following:

Comparison methods, compatible with EqualsDelegate, see Compare*.
Type conversion methods, see Convert*.
Equality methods, compatible with HashCodeDelegate.
Hash code methods, compatible with CompareDelegate, see HashCode*.
Helpers for estimating memory consumption, see MemoryConsumptionOf*.
Pin object references, for safely passing them around as IntPtr values.
