A wrapper used to build your data packets, whom you're going to send later on.Quote:
I know this is stupid question but what exactly is a packetBuilder?

What would be the difference between that andQuote:
public static byte[] Serialize(object Data)
{
int size = Marshal.SizeOf(Data);
byte[] bdata = new byte[size];
GCHandle handle = GCHandle.Alloc(bdata, GCHandleType.Pinned);
Marshal.StructureToPtr(Data, handle.AddrOfPinnedObject(), false);
handle.Free();
return bdata;
}
PHP Code:
public Byte[] ToByteArray()
{
Byte[] Buffer = new Byte[Packet.pLength];
Marshal.Copy((IntPtr)Packet.pBuffer, Buffer, 0, Packet.pLength);
return Buffer;
}

Assuming in your code "Packet" is a struct, that (IntPtr) would convert your struct to an IntPtr. Seems simple enough. That sounds like a lot of movement, as far as I understand it.
My code creates a buffer, pins it in the memory so there would be no movement induced by the GC, and move the bytes in my struct directly to my pinned buffer, without any intermediate "helper".
EDIT : I just saw that you`re actually passing Packet.pBuffer, which shouldn`t be a struct lol. In that case marshalling is totally pointless.
