CSharpGL(36)通用的非托管数组排序方法

 

如果OpenGL要渲染半透明物体，一个方法是根据顶点到窗口的距离排序，按照从远到近的顺序依次渲染。所以本篇介绍对 UnmanagedArray<T> 进行排序的几种方法。

+BIT祝威+悄悄在此留下版了个权的信息说：

UnmanagedArray<T>

首先重新介绍一下非托管数组这个东西。一个 UnmanagedArray<float> 与一个 float[] 是一样的用处，只不过 UnmanagedArray<float> 是用 Marshal.AllocHGlobal(memSize); 在非托管内存上申请的空间。

 8     public sealed unsafe class UnmanagedArray<T> : UnmanagedArrayBase where T : struct
 9     {
10         public UnmanagedArray(int count)
11             : base(count, Marshal.SizeOf(typeof(T)))
12         {
13         }
14     }

16     /// <summary>

21     {
22         /// <summary>
23         /// 此非托管数组中的数据在内存中的起始地址
24         /// Start position of array; Head of array; first element\'s position of array.

42         /// 申请到的字节数。（元素的总数 * 单个元素的字节数）。
43         /// <para>How many bytes for total array?</para>
44         /// <para>Length * elementSize</para>
45         /// </summary>
46         public int ByteLength
47         {
48             get { return (this.Length * this.elementSize); }
49         }
50 
51         protected UnmanagedArrayBase(int elementCount, int elementSize)
52         {
53             this.Length = elementCount;
54             this.elementSize = elementSize;
55             int memSize = this.Length * this.elementSize;
56             this.Header = Marshal.AllocHGlobal(memSize);
57         }
58     }
59 }

UnmanagedArray<T> 

UnmanagedArray<float>

下面我们以 UnmanagedArray<float> 为例，实现对非托管数组的排序。（下面是快速排序算法）

 1         public static void Sort(this UnmanagedArray<float> array, bool descending)
 2         {
 3             QuickSort(array, 0, array.Length - 1, descending);
 4         }
 5 
 6         public static void Sort(UnmanagedArray<float> array, int start, int length, bool descending)
 7         {
 8             QuickSort(array, start, start + length - 1, descending);
 9         }
10 
11         private static void QuickSort(UnmanagedArray<float> array, int start, int end, bool descending)
12         {
13             if (start >= end) { return; }
14 
15             Stack<int> stack = new Stack<int>();
16             stack.Push(end);
17             stack.Push(start);
18             QuickSort(array, descending, stack);
19         }
20 
21         private static void QuickSort(UnmanagedArray<float> array, bool descending, Stack<int> stack)
22         {
23             while (stack.Count > 0)
24             {
25                 int start = stack.Pop();
26                 int end = stack.Pop();
27                 int index = QuickSortPartion(array, start, end, descending);
28                 if (start < index - 1)
29                 {
30                     stack.Push(index - 1); stack.Push(start);
31                 }
32                 if (index + 1 < end)
33                 {
34                     stack.Push(end); stack.Push(index + 1);
35                 }
36             }
37         }
38 
39         private static unsafe int QuickSortPartion(UnmanagedArray<float> array, int start, int end, bool descending)
40         {
41             float* pointer = (float*)array.Header.ToPointer();
42             float pivot, startValue, endValue;
43             pivot = pointer[start];
44             while (start < end)
45             {
46                 startValue = pointer[start];
47                 while ((start < end)
48                     && ((descending && (startValue.CompareTo(pivot) > 0))
49                         || (!descending) && (startValue.CompareTo(pivot) < 0)))
50                 {
51                     start++;
52                     startValue = pointer[start];
53                 }
54 
55                 endValue = pointer[end];
56                 while ((start < end)
57                     && ((descending && (endValue.CompareTo(pivot) < 0))
58                         || (!descending) && (endValue.CompareTo(pivot) > 0)))
59                 {
60                     end--;
61                     endValue = pointer[end];
62                 }
63 
64                 if (start < end)
65                 {
66                     pointer[end] = startValue;
67                     pointer[start] = endValue;
68                 }
69             }
70 
71             return start;
72         }

public static void Sort(this UnmanagedArray array, bool descending)

原本我以为把这个方法改写一下，用 T代替具体的 float ，就可以实现对任意 T where T : struct,IComparable<T> 的排序，但是VS报了这样的编译错误：无法获取托管类型(“T”)的地址和大小，或无法声明指向它的指针。

 

看来C#不允许将泛型T作为unsafe里的数组的类型。那么只能用下面的几种方式变通一下。

Marshal

 Marshal 有这样2个方法：

1 // 从非托管数组中读取一个元素
2 public static object PtrToStructure(IntPtr ptr, Type structureType);
3 // 向非托管数组写入一个元素
4 public static void StructureToPtr(object structure, IntPtr ptr, bool fDeleteOld);

用这2个方法就可以实现对非托管数组的读写操作。于是泛型版本( UnmagedArray<T> )的排序算法就实现了。

 1         public static void Sort<T>(this UnmanagedArray<T> array, bool descending) where T : struct, IComparable<T>
 2         {
 3             QuickSort(array, 0, array.Length - 1, descending);

 6         public static void Sort<T>(this UnmanagedArray<T> array, int start, int length, bool descending) where T : struct, IComparable<T>

 9         }

14 
15             var stack = new Stack<int>();
16             stack.Push(end);

public static void Sort(this UnmanagedArray array, bool descending) where T : struct, IComparable

虽然可用，但是用Marshal读写非托管数组效率比较低（使用了装箱拆箱操作）。于是我有了下面这个思路。

+BIT祝威+悄悄在此留下版了个权的信息说：

CodeProvider

我们知道C#现有的类库是支持动态生成和调用C#代码的。因此，我可以在调用 Sort<T>(this UnmanagedArray<T> array, bool descending) 时，临时为具体的T生成一个排序方法，然后去调用这个方法。这就不需要使用 Marshal 了。

具体步骤如下。

准备模板

为了便于编码、维护，我们先准备一个排序代码的模板。模板里的TemplateStructType纯属一个占位符，在使用的时候我们先用具体的类型把它替换掉，就成了我们需要的源代码。

Teamplate method

嵌入的资源

然后把这个模板文件设置为嵌入的资源，以便于调用。

 

动态生成和调用代码

利用CSharpCodeProvider来把源代码编译为Assembly并调用。
