Examples

The following code example demonstrates the creation, population and modification of an OrderedDictionary collection, as well as two techniques to display the contents of the OrderedDictionary: one using the Keys and Values properties and the other creating an enumerator through the GetEnumerator method.

// The following code example enumerates the elements of a OrderedDictionary.
#using <System.dll>

using namespace System;
using namespace System::Collections;
using namespace System::Collections::Specialized;

public ref class OrderedDictionarySample

        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);

        // Modifying the OrderedDictionary
        if (!myOrderedDictionary->IsReadOnly)
        {

Remarks

Each element is a key/value pair stored in a DictionaryEntry object. A key cannot be null, but a value can be.

The elements of an OrderedDictionary are not sorted by the key, unlike the elements of a SortedDictionary<TKey,TValue> class. You can access elements either by the key or by the index.

The foreach statement of the C# language (For Each in Visual Basic) returns objects that are of the type of each element in the collection. Since each element of the OrderedDictionary collection is a key/value pair, the element type is not the type of the key or the type of the value. Instead, the element type is DictionaryEntry. The following code shows C#, Visual Basic and C++ syntax.

for each (DictionaryEntry de in myOrderedDictionary)
{
    //...
}
foreach (DictionaryEntry de in myOrderedDictionary)
{
    //...
}
For Each de As DictionaryEntry In myOrderedDictionary
    '...
Next de

The foreach statement is a wrapper around the enumerator, which only allows reading from, not writing to, the collection.

Constructors

OrderedDictionary()

Initializes a new instance of the OrderedDictionary class.

OrderedDictionary(IEqualityComparer)

Initializes a new instance of the OrderedDictionary class using the specified comparer.

OrderedDictionary(Int32, IEqualityComparer)

Initializes a new instance of the OrderedDictionary class using the specified initial capacity and comparer.

OrderedDictionary(Int32)

Initializes a new instance of the OrderedDictionary class using the specified initial capacity.

OrderedDictionary(SerializationInfo, StreamingContext)
Obsolete.

Initializes a new instance of the OrderedDictionary class that is serializable using the specified SerializationInfo and StreamingContext objects.

Properties

Count

Gets the number of key/values pairs contained in the OrderedDictionary collection.

IsReadOnly

Gets a value indicating whether the OrderedDictionary collection is read-only.

Item[Int32]

Gets or sets the value at the specified index.

Item[Object]

Gets or sets the value with the specified key.

Keys

Gets an ICollection object containing the keys in the OrderedDictionary collection.

Values

Gets an ICollection object containing the values in the OrderedDictionary collection.

Methods

Add(Object, Object)

Adds an entry with the specified key and value into the OrderedDictionary collection with the lowest available index.

AsReadOnly()

Returns a read-only copy of the current OrderedDictionary collection.

Clear()

Removes all elements from the OrderedDictionary collection.

Contains(Object)

Determines whether the OrderedDictionary collection contains a specific key.

CopyTo(Array, Int32)

Copies the OrderedDictionary elements to a one-dimensional Array object at the specified index.

Equals(Object)

Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.

(Inherited from Object)
GetEnumerator()

Returns an IDictionaryEnumerator object that iterates through the OrderedDictionary collection.

GetHashCode()

Serves as the default hash function.

(Inherited from Object)
GetObjectData(SerializationInfo, StreamingContext)
Obsolete.

Implements the ISerializable interface and returns the data needed to serialize the OrderedDictionary collection.

GetType()

Gets the Type of the current instance.

(Inherited from Object)
Insert(Int32, Object, Object)

Inserts a new entry into the OrderedDictionary collection with the specified key and value at the specified index.

MemberwiseClone()

Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.

(Inherited from Object)
OnDeserialization(Object)

Implements the ISerializable interface and is called back by the deserialization event when deserialization is complete.

Remove(Object)

Removes the entry with the specified key from the OrderedDictionary collection.

RemoveAt(Int32)

Removes the entry at the specified index from the OrderedDictionary collection.

ToString()

Returns a string that represents the current object.

(Inherited from Object)

Explicit Interface Implementations

ICollection.IsSynchronized

Gets a value indicating whether access to the OrderedDictionary object is synchronized (thread-safe).

ICollection.SyncRoot

Gets an object that can be used to synchronize access to the OrderedDictionary object.

IDeserializationCallback.OnDeserialization(Object)

Implements the ISerializable interface and is called back by the deserialization event when deserialization is complete.

IDictionary.IsFixedSize

Gets a value indicating whether the OrderedDictionary has a fixed size.

IEnumerable.GetEnumerator()

Returns an IDictionaryEnumerator object that iterates through the OrderedDictionary collection.

Extension Methods

Cast<TResult>(IEnumerable)

Casts the elements of an IEnumerable to the specified type.

OfType<TResult>(IEnumerable)

Filters the elements of an IEnumerable based on a specified type.

AsParallel(IEnumerable)

Enables parallelization of a query.

AsQueryable(IEnumerable)

Converts an IEnumerable to an IQueryable.

Applies to
