Dictionary<TKey,TValue>.ValueCollection Constructor

Definition

Initializes a new instance of the Dictionary<TKey,TValue>.ValueCollection class that reflects the values in the specified Dictionary<TKey,TValue>.

Parameters

dictionary
Dictionary<TKey,TValue>

The Dictionary<TKey,TValue> whose values are reflected in the new Dictionary<TKey,TValue>.ValueCollection.

Remarks

The Dictionary<TKey,TValue>.ValueCollection is not a static copy; instead, the Dictionary<TKey,TValue>.ValueCollection refers back to the values in the original Dictionary<TKey,TValue>.

This constructor is an O(1) operation.
