IList<T>.Item Property

.NET Framework 4.5

Gets or sets the element at the specified index.

Namespace: System.Collections.Generic
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

T this[
	int index
] { get; set; }

Parameters

index: Type: System.Int32
The zero-based index of the element to get or set.

Property Value

Type: T
The element at the specified index.

Exceptions

Exception	Condition
ArgumentOutOfRangeException	index is not a valid index in the IList<T>.
NotSupportedException	The property is set and the IList<T> is read-only.

Remarks

This property provides the ability to access a specific element in the collection by using the following syntax: myCollection[index].

The C# language uses the this keyword to define the indexers instead of implementing the Item property. Visual Basic implements Item as a default property, which provides the same indexing functionality.
