InstanceDataCollectionCollection.Contains(String) Method

Definition

Determines whether an instance data collection for the specified counter (identified by one of the indexed InstanceDataCollection objects) exists in the collection.

public:
 bool Contains(System::String ^ counterName);
public bool Contains (string counterName);
member this.Contains : string -> bool
Public Function Contains (counterName As String) As Boolean

Parameters

counterName
String

The name of the performance counter.

Returns

true if an instance data collection containing the specified counter exists in the collection; otherwise, false.

Exceptions

The counterName parameter is null.

Examples

The following code example accepts a PerformanceCounter category name and counter name from the command line. It gets the InstanceDataCollectionCollection for the PerformanceCounterCategory and then uses the Contains method to determine if the specified counter exists. If the counter exists, the example gets the associated InstanceDataCollection and displays the instance names from the collection.

public static void Main(string[] args)
{
    // The following values can be used as arguments.
    string categoryName = "Process";
    string counterName = "Private Bytes";

    InstanceDataCollectionCollection idColCol;

    // Copy the supplied arguments into the local variables.
    try
    {
        categoryName = args[0];
        counterName = args[1];
    }
    catch
    {
        // Ignore the exception from non-supplied arguments.
    }

    try
    {
        // Get the InstanceDataCollectionCollection for this category.
        PerformanceCounterCategory pcc = new PerformanceCounterCategory(categoryName);
        idColCol = pcc.ReadCategory();
    }
    catch(Exception ex)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("An error occurred getting the InstanceDataCollection for " +
            "category \"{0}\"."+ "\n" +ex.Message, categoryName);
        return;
    }

    // Check if this counter name exists using the Contains
    // method of the InstanceDataCollectionCollection.
    if (!idColCol.Contains(counterName))
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Counter \"{0}\" does not exist in category \"{1}\".", counterName, categoryName);
        return;
    }
    else
    {
        // Now get the counter's InstanceDataCollection object using the
        // indexer (Item property) for the InstanceDataCollectionCollection.
        InstanceDataCollection countData = idColCol[counterName];

        ICollection idColKeys = countData.Keys;
        string[] idColKeysArray = new string[idColKeys.Count];
        idColKeys.CopyTo(idColKeysArray, 0);

        Console.WriteLine("Counter \"{0}\" of category \"{1}\" " +
            "has {2} instances.", counterName, categoryName, idColKeys.Count);

        // Display the instance names for this counter.
        int index;
        for(index=0; index<idColKeysArray.Length; index++)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("{0,4} -- {1}", index+1, idColKeysArray[index]);
        }
    }

        counterName = args(1)
    Catch ex As Exception
        ' Ignore the exception from non-supplied arguments.
    End Try

    Try

        Dim idColKeys As ICollection = countData.Keys
        Dim idColKeysArray(idColKeys.Count - 1) As String
        idColKeys.CopyTo(idColKeysArray, 0)

        Dim index As Integer
        For index = 0 To idColKeysArray.Length - 1
            Console.WriteLine("{0,4} -- {1}", index + 1, idColKeysArray(index))
        Next index
    End If
End Sub

Remarks

The counterName parameter is case-insensitive.

Each InstanceDataCollection object in the collection contains the performance data for all counters for an instance. The data is indexed by counter name and then by instance name. Contains returns true if there is an InstanceDataCollection object whose associated counter has the name specified by the counterName parameter.
