HybridDictionary.Add(Object, Object) Method

Definition

Adds an entry with the specified key and value into the HybridDictionary.

public:
 virtual void Add(System::Object ^ key, System::Object ^ value);
public void Add (object key, object value);
public void Add (object key, object? value);
abstract member Add : obj * obj -> unit
override this.Add : obj * obj -> unit
Public Sub Add (key As Object, value As Object)

Parameters

key
Object

The key of the entry to add.

value
Object

The value of the entry to add. The value can be null.

Implements

Exceptions

key is null.

An entry with the same key already exists in the HybridDictionary.

Examples

The following code example adds to and removes elements from a HybridDictionary.

#using <System.dll>

using namespace System;
using namespace System::Collections;
using namespace System::Collections::Specialized;
void PrintKeysAndValues( IDictionary^ myCol )
{
   Console::WriteLine( "   KEY                       VALUE" );
   IEnumerator^ myEnum = myCol->GetEnumerator();
   while ( myEnum->MoveNext() )
   {
      DictionaryEntry de =  safe_cast<DictionaryEntry>(myEnum->Current);
      Console::WriteLine( "   {0,-25} {1}", de.Key, de.Value );
   }

   Console::WriteLine();
}

int main()
{
   
   // Creates and initializes a new HybridDictionary.
   HybridDictionary^ myCol = gcnew HybridDictionary;
   myCol->Add( "Braeburn Apples", "1.49" );
   myCol->Add( "Fuji Apples", "1.29" );
   myCol->Add( "Gala Apples", "1.49" );

   myCol->Add( "Plums", "1.69" );
   myCol->Add( "Peaches", "1.99" );
   
   // Displays the values in the HybridDictionary in three different ways.
   Console::WriteLine( "Initial contents of the HybridDictionary:" );
   PrintKeysAndValues( myCol );
   
   // Deletes a key.
   myCol->Remove( "Plums" );
   Console::WriteLine( "The collection contains the following elements after removing \"Plums\":" );

Remarks

An object that has no correlation between its state and its hash code value should typically not be used as the key. For example, String objects are better than StringBuilder objects for use as keys.

A key cannot be null, but a value can.

You can also use the Item[] property to add new elements by setting the value of a key that does not exist in the HybridDictionary; for example, myCollection["myNonexistentKey"] = myValue. However, if the specified key already exists in the HybridDictionary, setting the Item[] property overwrites the old value. In contrast, the Add method does not modify existing elements.

When the number of elements becomes greater than the optimal size for a ListDictionary, the elements are copied from the ListDictionary to a Hashtable. However, this only happens once. If the collection is already stored in a Hashtable and the number of elements falls below the optimal size for a ListDictionary, the collection remains in the Hashtable.

This method is an O(1) operation.
