Gets or sets the element at the specified index.
public:
property System::Object ^ default[int] { System::Object ^ get(int index); void set(int index, System::Object ^ value); };

Default Public Property Item(index As Integer) As Object
- index
- Int32
The zero-based index of the element to get or set.
The element at the specified index.
index
is not a valid index in the IList.
The property is set and the IList is read-only.
The following example demonstrates the implementation of the IList interface to create a simple, fixed-size list. This code is part of a larger example for the IList interface.

_count++;
return (_count - 1);
}
return -1;
}
public void Clear()
{

This property provides the ability to access a specific element in the collection by using the following syntax: myCollection[index]
.
The C# language uses the this keyword to define the indexers instead of implementing the Item[] property. Visual Basic implements Item[] as a default property, which provides the same indexing functionality.
