Syntax

C#
public static bool TryFindLastWhere<T>(
	IEnumerable<T> collection,
	Predicate<T> predicate,
	out T foundItem
)
Visual Basic (Declaration)
Public Shared Function TryFindLastWhere(Of T) ( _
	collection As IEnumerable(Of T), _
	predicate As Predicate(Of T), _
	<OutAttribute> ByRef foundItem As T _
) As Boolean
Visual C++
public:
generic<typename T>
static bool TryFindLastWhere (
	IEnumerable<T>^ collection, 
	Predicate<T>^ predicate, 
	[OutAttribute] T% foundItem
)

Parameters

collection
IEnumerable<(Of <T>)>
The collection to search.
predicate
Predicate<(Of <T>)>
A delegate that defined the condition to check for.
foundItem
T%
Outputs the last item in the collection that matches the condition, if the method returns true.

Return Value

True if an item satisfying the condition was found. False if no such item exists in the collection.

Remarks

If the collection implements IList<T>, then the list is scanned in reverse until a matching item is found. Otherwise, the entire collection is iterated in the forward direction.
