StringCollection.Add Method
Adds a string to the end of the StringCollection.
Namespace: System.Collections.Specialized
Assembly: System (in System.dll)
Parameters
- value
- Type: System.String
The string to add to the end of the StringCollection. The value can be null.
StringCollection accepts null as a valid value and allows duplicate elements.
If Count is less than the capacity, this method is an O(1) operation. If the capacity needs to be increased to accommodate the new element, this method becomes an O(n) operation, where n is Count.
The following code example adds new elements to the StringCollection.
using System; using System.Collections; using System.Collections.Specialized; public class SamplesStringCollection { public static void Main() { // Creates and initializes a new StringCollection. StringCollection myCol = new StringCollection(); Console.WriteLine( "Initial contents of the StringCollection:" ); PrintValues( myCol ); // Adds a range of elements from an array to the end of the StringCollection. String[] myArr = new String[] { "RED", "orange", "yellow", "RED", "green", "blue", "RED", "indigo", "violet", "RED" }; myCol.AddRange( myArr ); Console.WriteLine( "After adding a range of elements:" ); PrintValues( myCol ); // Adds one element to the end of the StringCollection and inserts another at index 3. myCol.Add( "* white" ); myCol.Insert( 3, "* gray" ); Console.WriteLine( "After adding \"* white\" to the end and inserting \"* gray\" at index 3:" ); PrintValues( myCol ); } public static void PrintValues( IEnumerable myCol ) { foreach ( Object obj in myCol ) Console.WriteLine( " {0}", obj ); Console.WriteLine(); } } /* This code produces the following output. Initial contents of the StringCollection: After adding a range of elements: RED orange yellow RED green blue RED indigo violet RED After adding "* white" to the end and inserting "* gray" at index 3: RED orange yellow * gray RED green blue RED indigo violet RED * white */
