NameValueCollection Class
Part of my 2008 study notes for exam 70-536 (.NET Framework 2.0).
Overview
- Acts like a StringDictionary which can contain duplicate keys.
- Values can be retrieved by key and index.
Good practice
- When possible, use a generic collection instead.
Examples
Simple Usage
NameValueCollection valueCollection = new NameValueCollection();
valueCollection.Add("Key1", "Value1");
valueCollection.Add("Key1", "Value2");
valueCollection.Add("Key2", "Value3");
foreach (string s in valueCollection.Keys)
{
Console.WriteLine(valueCollection[s]);
}
