'Usage
Dim instance As CodeTypeReferenceCollection

The CodeTypeReferenceCollection class provides a simple collection object that can be used to store a set of CodeTypeReference objects.

' Creates an empty CodeTypeReferenceCollection. 
Dim collection As New CodeTypeReferenceCollection()

' Adds a CodeTypeReference to the collection.
collection.Add(New CodeTypeReference(GetType(Boolean)))

' Adds an array of CodeTypeReference objects to the collection. 
Dim references As CodeTypeReference() = {New CodeTypeReference(GetType(Boolean)), New CodeTypeReference(GetType(Boolean))}
collection.AddRange(references)

' Adds a collection of CodeTypeReference objects to the collection. 
Dim referencesCollection As New CodeTypeReferenceCollection()
referencesCollection.Add(New CodeTypeReference(GetType(Boolean)))
referencesCollection.Add(New CodeTypeReference(GetType(Boolean)))
collection.AddRange(referencesCollection)

' Tests for the presence of a CodeTypeReference in the  
' collection, and retrieves its index if it is found. 
Dim testReference As New CodeTypeReference(GetType(Boolean))
Dim itemIndex As Integer = -1
If collection.Contains(testReference) Then
    itemIndex = collection.IndexOf(testReference)
End If 

' Copies the contents of the collection, beginning at index 0,  
' to the specified CodeTypeReference array. 
' 'references' is a CodeTypeReference array.
collection.CopyTo(references, 0)

' Retrieves the count of the items in the collection. 
Dim collectionCount As Integer = collection.Count

' Inserts a CodeTypeReference at index 0 of the collection.
collection.Insert(0, New CodeTypeReference(GetType(Boolean)))

' Removes the specified CodeTypeReference from the collection. 
Dim reference As New CodeTypeReference(GetType(Boolean))
collection.Remove(reference)

' Removes the CodeTypeReference at index 0.
collection.RemoveAt(0)
