SortedList<TKey,TValue>.Add(TKey, TValue) Method

Definition

Adds an element with the specified key and value into the SortedList<TKey,TValue>.

public:
 virtual void Add(TKey key, TValue value);
public void Add (TKey key, TValue value);
abstract member Add : 'Key * 'Value -> unit
override this.Add : 'Key * 'Value -> unit
Public Sub Add (key As TKey, value As TValue)

Parameters

key
TKey

The key of the element to add.

value
TValue

The value of the element to add. The value can be null for reference types.

Implements

Exceptions

key is null.

An element with the same key already exists in the SortedList<TKey,TValue>.

Examples

The following code example creates an empty SortedList<TKey,TValue> of strings with string keys and uses the Add method to add some elements. The example demonstrates that the Add method throws an ArgumentException when attempting to add a duplicate key.

This code example is part of a larger example provided for the SortedList<TKey,TValue> class.

// Create a new sorted list of strings, with string
// keys.
SortedList<String^, String^>^ openWith =
    gcnew SortedList<String^, String^>();

// Add some elements to the list. There are no 
// duplicate keys, but some of the values are duplicates.
openWith->Add("txt", "notepad.exe");
openWith->Add("bmp", "paint.exe");
openWith->Add("dib", "paint.exe");
openWith->Add("rtf", "wordpad.exe");

// The Add method throws an exception if the new key is
// already in the list.
try
{
    openWith->Add("txt", "winword.exe");
}
catch (ArgumentException^)
{
    Console::WriteLine("An element with Key = \"txt\" already exists.");
}
// Create a new sorted list of strings, with string
// keys.
SortedList<string, string> openWith =
    new SortedList<string, string>();

// Add some elements to the list. There are no
// duplicate keys, but some of the values are duplicates.
openWith.Add("txt", "notepad.exe");
openWith.Add("bmp", "paint.exe");
openWith.Add("dib", "paint.exe");
openWith.Add("rtf", "wordpad.exe");

// The Add method throws an exception if the new key is
// already in the list.
try
{
    openWith.Add("txt", "winword.exe");
}
catch (ArgumentException)
{
    Console.WriteLine("An element with Key = \"txt\" already exists.");
}
' Create a new sorted list of strings, with string 
' keys. 
Dim openWith As New SortedList(Of String, String)

' Add some elements to the list. There are no 
' duplicate keys, but some of the values are duplicates.
openWith.Add("txt", "notepad.exe")
openWith.Add("bmp", "paint.exe")
openWith.Add("dib", "paint.exe")
openWith.Add("rtf", "wordpad.exe")

' The Add method throws an exception if the new key is 
' already in the list.
Try
    openWith.Add("txt", "winword.exe")
Catch 
    Console.WriteLine("An element with Key = ""txt"" already exists.")
End Try
// Create a new sorted list of strings, with string
// keys.
let openWith = SortedList<string, string>()

// Add some elements to the list. There are no
// duplicate keys, but some of the values are duplicates.
openWith.Add("txt", "notepad.exe")
openWith.Add("bmp", "paint.exe")
openWith.Add("dib", "paint.exe")
openWith.Add("rtf", "wordpad.exe")

// The Add method throws an exception if the new key is
// already in the list.
try
    openWith.Add("txt", "winword.exe");
with
    | :? ArgumentException ->
        printfn "An element with Key = \"txt\" already exists."

Remarks

A key cannot be null, but a value can be, if the type of values in the sorted list, TValue, is a reference type.

You can also use the Item[] property to add new elements by setting the value of a key that does not exist in the SortedList<TKey,TValue>; for example, myCollection["myNonexistentKey"] = myValue. However, if the specified key already exists in the SortedList<TKey,TValue>, setting the Item[] property overwrites the old value. In contrast, the Add method does not modify existing elements.

If Count already equals Capacity, the capacity of the SortedList<TKey,TValue> is increased by automatically reallocating the internal array, and the existing elements are copied to the new array before the new element is added.

This method is an O(n) operation for unsorted data, where n is Count. It is an O(log n) operation if the new element is added at the end of the list. If insertion causes a resize, the operation is O(n).
