Replace all items in a list or array equal to a particular value with another values. The replacement is done in-place, changing the list. A passed IEqualityComparer is used to determine equality.

Namespace: Wintellect.PowerCollections
Assembly:  PowerCollections (in PowerCollections.dll)

C#
public static void ReplaceInPlace<T>(
	IList<T> list,
	T itemFind,
	T replaceWith,

)
Visual Basic (Declaration)
Public Shared Sub ReplaceInPlace(Of T) ( _

)
Visual C++

	IList<T>^ list, 
	T itemFind, 
	T replaceWith, 
	IEqualityComparer<T>^ equalityComparer
)

Parameters

list
IList<(Of <T>)>
The list or array to process.
itemFind
T
The value to find and replace within .
replaceWith
T
The new value to replace with.
equalityComparer
IEqualityComparer<(Of <T>)>
