Implements
ICollection::IsSynchronizedA ReadOnlyCollectionBase object is not synchronized. Derived classes can provide a synchronized version of the ReadOnlyCollectionBase class using the SyncRoot property.
Enumerating through a collection is intrinsically not a thread-safe procedure. Even when a collection is synchronized, other threads can still modify the collection, which causes the enumerator to throw an exception. To guarantee thread safety during enumeration, you can either lock the collection during the entire enumeration or catch the exceptions resulting from changes made by other threads.
