The OrderedDictionary<TKey,TValue>.View class is used to look at a subset of the keys and values inside an ordered dictionary. It is returned from the Range, RangeTo, RangeFrom, and Reversed methods.

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

Syntax

C#
[SerializableAttribute]
public class View : DictionaryBase<TKey, TValue>
Visual Basic (Declaration)
<SerializableAttribute> _
Public Class View _
	Inherits DictionaryBase(Of TKey, TValue)
Visual C++
[SerializableAttribute]
public ref class View : public DictionaryBase<TKey, TValue>

Remarks

Views are dynamic. If the underlying dictionary changes, the view changes in sync. If a change is made to the view, the underlying dictionary changes accordingly.

Typically, this class is used in conjunction with a foreach statement to enumerate the keys and values in a subset of the OrderedDictionary. For example:

 Copy imageCopy Code
             foreach(KeyValuePair<TKey, TValue> pair in dictionary.Range(from, to)) {
                // process pair
             }
