HybridDictionary.Count Property

Definition

Gets the number of key/value pairs contained in the HybridDictionary.

public:
 property int Count { int get(); };
public int Count { get; }
member this.Count : int
Public ReadOnly Property Count As Integer

Property Value

The number of key/value pairs contained in the HybridDictionary.

Retrieving the value of this property is an O(1) operation.

Implements
