C# Ordered dictionary index
I am considering of using the OrderedDictionary. As a key I want to use a long value (id) and the value will be a custom object.
I use the OrderedDictionary because I want to get an object by it's Id and I want to get an object by it's 'collection' index.
I want to use the OrderedDictionary like this:
public void AddObject(MyObject obj)
{
_dict.Add(obj.Id, obj); // dict is declared as OrderedDictionary _dict = new OrderedDictionary();
}
Somewhere else in my code I have something similar like this:
开发者_StackOverflowpublic MyObject GetNextObject()
{
/* In my code keep track of the current index */
_currentIndex++;
// check _currentindex doesn't exceed the _questions bounds
return _dict[_currentIndex] as MyObject;
}
Now my question is. In the last method I've used an index. Imagine _currentIndex is set to 10, but I have also an object with an id of 10. I've set the Id as a key.
The Id of MyObject is of type long?. Does this goes wrong?
Updated as I never noticed the OrderedDictionary
part! The indexer has an override of either object
which will retrieve the value by key, or int
which will retrieve the value by index. You would need to cast your index as an object if you are looking to retrieve it by key e.g.
_dict[(object)_currentIndex] as MyObject;
