Removes the first occurrence of a specific object from the List<T>.
public:
virtual bool Remove(T item);public bool Remove (T item);abstract member Remove : 'T -> bool
override this.Remove : 'T -> boolPublic Function Remove (item As T) As BooleanParameters
- item
- T
The object to remove from the List<T>. The value can be null for reference types.
Returns
true if item is successfully removed; otherwise, false. This method also returns false if item was not found in the List<T>.
Implements
Examples
The following example demonstrates how to add, remove, and insert a simple business object in a List<T>.
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
// Simple business object. A PartId is used to identify the type of part
// but the part name can change.
public class Part : IEquatable<Part>
{
public string PartName { get; set; }
public int PartId { get; set; }
public override string ToString()
{
return "ID: " + PartId + " Name: " + PartName;
}
public override bool Equals(object obj)
{
if (obj == null) return false;
Part objAsPart = obj as Part;
if (objAsPart == null) return false;
else return Equals(objAsPart);
}
public override int GetHashCode()
{
return PartId;
}
public bool Equals(Part other)
{
if (other == null) return false;
return (this.PartId.Equals(other.PartId));
}
// Should also override == and != operators.
}

The following example demonstrates Remove method. Several properties and methods of the List<T> generic class are used to add, insert, and search the list. After these operations, the list contains a duplicate. The Remove method is used to remove the first instance of the duplicate item, and the contents are displayed. The Remove method always removes the first instance it encounters.

Remarks
If type T implements the IEquatable<T> generic interface, the equality comparer is the Equals method of that interface; otherwise, the default equality comparer is Object.Equals.
This method performs a linear search; therefore, this method is an O(n) operation, where n is Count.
