IList.RemoveAt Method (Int32)
.NET Framework (current version)
Removes the IList item at the specified index.
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
Parameters
- index
-
Type:
System.Int32
The zero-based index of the item to remove.
| Exception | Condition |
|---|---|
| ArgumentOutOfRangeException | index is not a valid index in the IList. |
| NotSupportedException |
In collections of contiguous elements, such as lists, the elements that follow the removed element move up to occupy the vacated spot. If the collection is indexed, the indexes of the elements that are moved are also updated. This behavior does not apply to collections where elements are conceptually grouped into buckets, such as a hash table.
The following example demonstrates the implementation of the IList interface to create a simple list, fixed-size list. This code is part of a larger example for the IList interface.
