C# Error CS0821 – Implicitly-typed local variables cannot be fixed

C# Error

CS0821 – Implicitly-typed local variables cannot be fixed

Reason for the Error & Solution

Implicitly typed locals cannot be fixed

Implicitly typed local variables and anonymous types are not supported in the fixed context.

To correct this error

1. Either remove the fixed modifier from the variable or else give the variable an explicit type.

Example

The following code generates CS0821:

class A  
{  
    static int x;  
  
    public static int Main()  
    {  
        unsafe  
        {  
            fixed (var p = &x) { }  
        }  
        return -1;  
    }  
}
