| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| Equals | Indicates whether this instance and a specified object are equal. (Inherited from ValueType.) |
| GetHashCode | Returns the hash code for this instance. (Inherited from ValueType.) |
| GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.) |
| ToString | Returns the fully qualified type name of this instance. (Inherited from ValueType.) In XNA Framework 3.0, this member is inherited from Object.ToString(). |
The IDictionaryEnumerator.Entry method returns an instance of this type.
The foreach statement of the C# language (for each in Visual C++, For Each in Visual Basic) requires the type of each element in the collection. Since each element of the IDictionary is a key/value pair, the element type is not the type of the key or the type of the value. Instead, the element type is DictionaryEntry. For example:
The foreach statement is a wrapper around the enumerator, which only allows reading from, not writing to, the collection.
