OidCollection Class
Represents a collection of Oid objects. This class cannot be inherited.
Assembly: System (in System.dll)
The OidCollection type exposes the following members.
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | Count | Gets the number of Oid objects in a collection. |
![]() | IsSynchronized | Gets a value that indicates whether access to the OidCollection object is thread safe. |
![]() | Item(Int32) | Gets an Oid object from the OidCollection object. |
![]() | Item(String) | Gets the first Oid object that contains a value of the Value property or a value of the FriendlyName property that matches the specified string value from the OidCollection object. |
![]() | SyncRoot | Gets an object that can be used to synchronize access to the OidCollection object. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | Add | Adds an Oid object to the OidCollection object. |
![]() | CopyTo | Copies the OidCollection object into an array. |
![]() | Equals(Object) | Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | Finalize | Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | GetEnumerator | Returns an OidEnumerator object that can be used to navigate the OidCollection object. |
![]() | GetHashCode | Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | MemberwiseClone | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | ToString | Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.) |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | AsParallel | Enables parallelization of a query. (Defined by ParallelEnumerable.) |
![]() | AsQueryable | Converts an IEnumerable to an IQueryable. (Defined by Queryable.) |
![]() | Cast(Of TResult) | Casts the elements of an IEnumerable to the specified type. (Defined by Enumerable.) |
![]() | OfType(Of TResult) | Filters the elements of an IEnumerable based on a specified type. (Defined by Enumerable.) |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() ![]() | ICollection.CopyTo | Copies the OidCollection object into an array. |
![]() ![]() | IEnumerable.GetEnumerator | Returns an OidEnumerator object that can be used to navigate the OidCollection object. |
This class implements the ICollection interface.
