Copies the ArrayList or a portion of it to a one-dimensional array.

Overloads

CopyTo(Array)	Copies the entire ArrayList to a compatible one-dimensional Array, starting at the beginning of the target array.
CopyTo(Array, Int32)	Copies the entire ArrayList to a compatible one-dimensional Array, starting at the specified index of the target array.
CopyTo(Int32, Array, Int32, Int32)	Copies a range of elements from the ArrayList to a compatible one-dimensional Array, starting at the specified index of the target array.

Public Overridable Sub CopyTo (array As Array)

Parameters

array: Array

The one-dimensional Array that is the destination of the elements copied from ArrayList. The Array must have zero-based indexing.

Exceptions

ArgumentNullException

array is null.

ArgumentException

array is multidimensional.

-or-

The number of elements in the source ArrayList is greater than the number of elements that the destination array can contain.

InvalidCastException

The type of the source ArrayList cannot be cast automatically to the type of the destination array.

Remarks

The specified array must be of a compatible type.

This method uses Array.Copy to copy the elements.

The elements are copied to the Array in the same order in which the enumerator iterates through the ArrayList.

This method is an O(n) operation, where n is Count.

Remarks

The specified array must be of a compatible type.

This method uses Array.Copy to copy the elements.

The elements are copied to the Array in the same order in which the enumerator iterates through the ArrayList.

This method is an O(n) operation, where n is count.
