Remarks

A ReadOnlyCollectionBase instance is always read-only. See CollectionBase for a modifiable version of this class.

Important

We don't recommend that you use the ReadOnlyCollectionBase class for new development. Instead, we recommend that you use the generic ReadOnlyCollection<T> class. For more information, see Non-generic collections shouldn't be used on GitHub.

Notes to Implementers

This base class is provided to make it easier for implementers to create a strongly typed read-only custom collection. Implementers are encouraged to extend this base class instead of creating their own. Members of this base class are protected and are intended to be used through a derived class only.

This class makes the underlying collection available through the InnerList property, which is intended for use only by classes that are derived directly from ReadOnlyCollectionBase. The derived class must ensure that its own users cannot modify the underlying collection.

Constructors

ReadOnlyCollectionBase()

Initializes a new instance of the ReadOnlyCollectionBase class.

Properties

Count

Gets the number of elements contained in the ReadOnlyCollectionBase instance.

InnerList

Gets the list of elements contained in the ReadOnlyCollectionBase instance.

Methods

Equals(Object)

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

(Inherited from Object)
GetEnumerator()

Returns an enumerator that iterates through the ReadOnlyCollectionBase instance.

GetHashCode()

Serves as the default hash function.

(Inherited from Object)
GetType()

Gets the Type of the current instance.

(Inherited from Object)
MemberwiseClone()

Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.

(Inherited from Object)
ToString()

Returns a string that represents the current object.

(Inherited from Object)

Explicit Interface Implementations

ICollection.CopyTo(Array, Int32)

Copies the entire ReadOnlyCollectionBase to a compatible one-dimensional Array, starting at the specified index of the target array.

ICollection.IsSynchronized

Gets a value indicating whether access to a ReadOnlyCollectionBase object is synchronized (thread safe).

ICollection.SyncRoot

Gets an object that can be used to synchronize access to a ReadOnlyCollectionBase object.

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

Thread Safety

Public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.

This implementation does not provide a synchronized (thread safe) wrapper for a ReadOnlyCollectionBase, but derived classes can create their own synchronized versions of the ReadOnlyCollectionBase using the SyncRoot property.

Enumerating through a collection is intrinsically not a thread-safe procedure. Even when a collection is synchronized, other threads can still modify the collection, which causes the enumerator to throw an exception. To guarantee thread safety during enumeration, you can either lock the collection during the entire enumeration or catch the exceptions resulting from changes made by other threads.
