Hashtable and linked list implementation designed to mimic Java's LinkedHashMap functionality.

The following tables list the members exposed by the LinkedDictionary<(Of K, V>) generic type.

Public Methods

AddOverloaded.
Clear
Removes all items from the ICollection<(Of T>).

Contains
Determines whether the ICollection<(Of T>) contains a specific value.

ContainsKey
Determines whether the IDictionary<(Of TKey, TValue>) contains an element with the specified key.

CopyTo
Copies the elements of the ICollection<(Of T>) to an Array, starting at a particular Array index.

Equals
Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object.
(Inherited from Object.)
FetchOverloaded.
GetEnumerator
Returns an enumerator that iterates through the collection.

GetHashCode
Serves as a hash function for a particular type. GetHashCode() is suitable for use in hashing algorithms and data structures like a hash table.
(Inherited from Object.)
GetType
Gets the Type of the current instance.
(Inherited from Object.)
Put
Sets the given key in the dictionary. If the key already exists, then it is remapped to thenew value.

PutAll
Puts all values from the source dictionary into this dictionary.

RemoveOverloaded.
ToString
Returns a String that represents the current Object.
(Inherited from Object.)
TryGetValue
Tries the get value.

Protected Methods

  NameDescription
Finalize
Allows an Object to attempt to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection.
(Inherited from Object.)
MemberwiseClone
Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.
(Inherited from Object.)

Public Constructors

  NameDescription
LinkedDictionary<(Of K, V>)NewOverloaded.

Public Properties

  NameDescription
Count
Gets the number of elements contained in the ICollection<(Of T>).

FastKeys
FirstValue
Returns the first value in the enumeration of values

IsReadOnly
Gets a value indicating whether the ICollection<(Of T>) is read-only.

Item
Gets or sets the value the specified key.

Keys
Gets an ICollection<(Of T>) containing the keys of the IDictionary<(Of TKey, TValue>).

ShuffleOnAccess
Returns a value indicating if items should be shuffled (pushed to the head of the list) on access requests.

Values
Gets an ICollection<(Of T>) containing the values in the IDictionary<(Of TKey, TValue>).

Public Events

  NameDescription
RemoveEldest
Occurs when a potentially destructive operations occurs on the dictionary and the dictionary is allowed to rebalance.

Explicit Interface Implementations

  NameDescription
Explicit interface implemetationIEnumerable.System.Collections.IEnumerable.GetEnumerator
Returns an enumerator that iterates through a collection.
