StringDictionary.CopyTo(Array, Int32) Method

Definition

Copies the string dictionary values to a one-dimensional Array instance at the specified index.

public:
 virtual void CopyTo(Array ^ array, int index);
public virtual void CopyTo (Array array, int index);
abstract member CopyTo : Array * int -> unit
override this.CopyTo : Array * int -> unit
Public Overridable Sub CopyTo (array As Array, index As Integer)

Parameters

array
Array

The one-dimensional Array that is the destination of the values copied from the StringDictionary.

index
Int32

The index in the array where copying begins.

Exceptions

array is multidimensional.

-or-

The number of elements in the StringDictionary is greater than the available space from index to the end of array.

array is null.

index is less than the lower bound of array.

Examples

The following code example shows how a StringDictionary can be copied to an array.

#using <System.dll>

using namespace System;
using namespace System::Collections;
using namespace System::Collections::Specialized;
void main()
{
   
   // Creates and initializes a new StringDictionary.
   StringDictionary^ myCol = gcnew StringDictionary;
   myCol->Add( "red", "rojo" );
   myCol->Add( "green", "verde" );
   myCol->Add( "blue", "azul" );
   
   // Displays the values in the StringDictionary.
   Console::WriteLine( "KEYS\tVALUES in the StringDictionary" );
   IEnumerator^ myEnum = myCol->GetEnumerator();
   while ( myEnum->MoveNext() )
   {
      DictionaryEntry^ myDE = safe_cast<DictionaryEntry^>(myEnum->Current);
      Console::WriteLine( "{0}\t{1}", myDE->Key, myDE->Value );
      Console::WriteLine();
      
      // Creates an array with DictionaryEntry elements.
      array<DictionaryEntry>^myArr = gcnew array<DictionaryEntry>(3);
      
      // Copies the StringDictionary to the array.
      myCol->CopyTo( myArr, 0 );
      
      // Displays the values in the array.
      Console::WriteLine( "KEYS\tVALUES in the array" );
      for ( int i = 0; i < myArr->Length; i++ )
         Console::WriteLine( "{0}\t{1}", myArr[ i ].Key, myArr[ i ].Value );
      Console::WriteLine();
   }
}

/*

Remarks

CopyTo copies objects that can be typecast to System.Collections.DictionaryEntry. DictionaryEntry contains both the key and the value.

The elements copied to the Array are sorted in the same order that the enumerator iterates through the StringDictionary.

This method is an O(n) operation, where n is Count.
