Exceptions

NotSupportedException

The OrderedDictionary collection is read-only.

ArgumentException

An element with the same key already exists in the OrderedDictionary collection.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates the creation and population of an OrderedDictionary collection. This code is part of a larger code example that can be viewed at OrderedDictionary.

// Creates and initializes a OrderedDictionary.
OrderedDictionary^ myOrderedDictionary = gcnew OrderedDictionary();
myOrderedDictionary->Add("testKey1", "testValue1");
myOrderedDictionary->Add("testKey2", "testValue2");
myOrderedDictionary->Add("keyToDelete", "valueToDelete");
myOrderedDictionary->Add("testKey3", "testValue3");

ICollection^ keyCollection = myOrderedDictionary->Keys;
ICollection^ valueCollection = myOrderedDictionary->Values;

// Display the contents using the key and value collections
DisplayContents(keyCollection, valueCollection, myOrderedDictionary->Count);

// Creates and initializes a OrderedDictionary.
OrderedDictionary myOrderedDictionary = new OrderedDictionary();
myOrderedDictionary.Add("testKey1", "testValue1");
myOrderedDictionary.Add("testKey2", "testValue2");
myOrderedDictionary.Add("keyToDelete", "valueToDelete");
myOrderedDictionary.Add("testKey3", "testValue3");

ICollection keyCollection = myOrderedDictionary.Keys;
ICollection valueCollection = myOrderedDictionary.Values;

// Display the contents using the key and value collections
DisplayContents(keyCollection, valueCollection, myOrderedDictionary.Count);

' Creates and initializes a OrderedDictionary.
Dim myOrderedDictionary As New OrderedDictionary()
myOrderedDictionary.Add("testKey1", "testValue1")
myOrderedDictionary.Add("testKey2", "testValue2")
myOrderedDictionary.Add("keyToDelete", "valueToDelete")
myOrderedDictionary.Add("testKey3", "testValue3")

Dim keyCollection As ICollection = myOrderedDictionary.Keys
Dim valueCollection As ICollection = myOrderedDictionary.Values

' Display the contents Imports the key and value collections
DisplayContents( _
    keyCollection, valueCollection, myOrderedDictionary.Count)

Remarks

A key cannot be null, but a value can be.

You can also use the Item[] property to add new elements by setting the value of a key that does not exist in the OrderedDictionary collection; however, if the specified key already exists in the OrderedDictionary, setting the Item[] property overwrites the old value. In contrast, the Add method does not modify existing elements but instead throws ArgumentException.
