IList.RemoveAt Method

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Removes the IList item at the specified index.

Namespace:  System.Collections
Assembly:  mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Sub RemoveAt ( _
    index As Integer _
)
void RemoveAt(
    int index
)

Parameters

  • index
    Type: System.Int32
    The zero-based index of the item to remove.

Exceptions

Exception Condition
ArgumentOutOfRangeException

index is not a valid index in the IList.

NotSupportedException

The IList is read-only.

-or-

The IList has a fixed size.

Remarks

In collections of contiguous elements, such as lists, the elements that follow the removed element move up to occupy the vacated spot. If the collection is indexed, the indexes of the elements that are moved are also updated. This behavior does not apply to collections where elements are conceptually grouped into buckets, such as a hash table.

Examples

The following example demonstrates the implementation of the IList interface to create a simple list, fixed-size list. This code is part of a larger example for the IList interface.

Public Class SimpleList
   Implements IList

   Private _contents(8) As Object
   Private _count As Integer

   Public Sub New()

      _count = 0
   End Sub

   ' IList Members

      If (_count < _contents.Length - 1) Then

         _contents(_count) = value
         _count = _count + 1

         Return (_count - 1)

      Else

         Return -1
      End If
   End Function

   Public Sub Clear() Implements IList.Clear
      _count = 0
   End Sub

   Public Function Contains(ByVal value As Object) As Boolean Implements IList.Contains

      Dim inList As Boolean = False

      Dim i As Integer
      For i = 0 To Count

         If _contents(i) = value Then

            inList = True
            Exit For

         End If

      Next i

      Return inList

   Public Function IndexOf(ByVal value As Object) As Integer Implements IList.IndexOf

      Dim itemIndex As Integer = -1

      Dim i As Integer

         Dim i As Integer
