Removes all the items in the collection that satisfy the condition
defined by predicate.
Namespace: Wintellect.PowerCollections
Assembly:
PowerCollections (in PowerCollections.dll)
Syntax
| C# |
|---|
public static ICollection<T> RemoveWhere<T>( ICollection<T> collection, Predicate<T> predicate ) |
| Visual Basic (Declaration) |
|---|
Public Shared Function RemoveWhere(Of T) ( _ collection As ICollection(Of T), _ predicate As Predicate(Of T) _ ) As ICollection(Of T) |
| Visual C++ |
|---|
public: generic<typename T> static ICollection<T>^ RemoveWhere ( ICollection<T>^ collection, Predicate<T>^ predicate ) |
Parameters
- collection
- ICollection<(Of <T>)>
The collection to check all the items in.
- predicate
- Predicate<(Of <T>)>
A delegate that defines the condition to check for.
Return Value
Returns a collection of the items that were removed. This collection contains the items in the same order that they orginally appeared in collection.Type Parameters
- T
Remarks
If the collection if an array or implements IList<T>, an efficient algorithm that
compacts items is used. If not, then ICollection<T>.Remove is used
to remove items from the collection. If the collection is an array or fixed-size list,
the non-removed elements are placed, in order, at the beginning of
the list, and the remaining list items are filled with a default value (0 or null).
