Практическое руководство. Группирование результатов по смежным ключам (Руководство по программированию в C#)

В следующем примере показано, как сгруппировать элементы в блоки, представляющие последовательности смежных ключей.Например, предположим, что имеется следующая последовательность пар ключ-значение:

Ключ	Значение
A	Мы
A	думаем,
A	что
B	Linq
C	является
A	действительно
B	известным
B	!

Следующие группы будут созданы в таком порядке:

1. Мы думаем, что

2. Linq

3. является

4. действительно

5. известным, !

Решение реализуется как метод расширения, который является потокобезопасным и возвращает свои результаты в потоковой манере.Другими словами, он создает свои группы, когда он проходит по исходной последовательности.В отличие от операторов group или orderby, он может начать возвращать группы вызывающему объекту до того, как будет прочитана вся последовательность.

Потокобезопасность обеспечивается созданием копии каждой группы или блока по мере итерации исходной последовательности, как указывается в комментариях исходного кода.Если исходная последовательность имеет большой набор смежных элементов, среда CLR может инициировать OutOfMemoryException.

Пример

В следующем примере показаны метод расширения и использующий его клиентский код.

Чтобы использовать метод расширения в своем проекте, скопируйте статический класс MyExtensions в новый или существующий файл исходного кода и, если необходимо, добавьте директиву using для пространства имен, в котором он находится.
