Copies the HybridDictionary entries to a one-dimensional Array instance at the specified index.
public:
virtual void CopyTo(Array ^ array, int index);public void CopyTo (Array array, int index);abstract member CopyTo : Array * int -> unit
override this.CopyTo : Array * int -> unitPublic Sub CopyTo (array As Array, index As Integer)Parameters
- array
- Array
The one-dimensional Array that is the destination of the DictionaryEntry objects copied from HybridDictionary. The Array must have zero-based indexing.
- index
- Int32
The zero-based index in array at which copying begins.
Implements
Exceptions
array is null.
index is less than zero.
array is multidimensional.
-or-
The number of elements in the source HybridDictionary is greater than the available space from arrayIndex to the end of the destination array.
The type of the source HybridDictionary cannot be cast automatically to the type of the destination array.
Examples
The following code example copies the elements of a HybridDictionary to an array.
#using <System.dll>
using namespace System;
using namespace System::Collections;
using namespace System::Collections::Specialized;
void PrintKeysAndValues( IDictionary^ myCol )
{
Console::WriteLine( " KEY VALUE" );
IEnumerator^ myEnum = myCol->GetEnumerator();

{
DictionaryEntry de = safe_cast<DictionaryEntry>(myEnum->Current);
Console::WriteLine( " {0,-25} {1}", de.Key, de.Value );
}
Console::WriteLine();
}
int main()
{
// Creates and initializes a new HybridDictionary.
HybridDictionary^ myCol = gcnew HybridDictionary;
myCol->Add( "Braeburn Apples", "1.49" );
myCol->Add( "Fuji Apples", "1.29" );

myCol->Add( "Plums", "1.69" );

// Copies the HybridDictionary to an array with DictionaryEntry elements.

Remarks
The elements are copied to the Array in the same order in which the enumerator iterates through the HybridDictionary.
To copy only the keys in the HybridDictionary, use HybridDictionary.Keys.CopyTo.
To copy only the values in the HybridDictionary, use HybridDictionary.Values.CopyTo.
This method is an O(n) operation, where n is Count.
