ctor -- protected, this class is abstract. The derivitive must provide the type of the object that it is collecting in this collection

The number of elements actually contained in the ArrayList.

true if the ArrayList has a fixed size; otherwise, false. The default is false.

Returns true if the collection is read-only. (Default is false)

true if access to the internal ArrayList is synchronized (thread-safe); otherwise, false. The default is false.

An object that can be used to synchronize access to the ArrayList.

Adds an object to the collection. Override. This method simply calls the Add method with CollectionAddFlags.replace as the flags.

Adds an item to the collection

Adds an item to the collection at the specified index. To append an item use -1 or the collection item count as the index.

Clears the collection

Determines whether an element is in the collection.

Checks for the existence of an item in the hashtable

Copies the entire ArrayList to a compatible one-dimensional Array, starting at the beginning of the target array.

Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object.

Allows an Object to attempt to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection.

Returns an enumerator that can iterate through the ArrayList.

Serves as a hash function for a particular type.

Returns an item that matches the specified string index

Returns an item that matches the specified string index

Returns the name of the item.

Gets the Type of the current instance.

Returns the zero-based index of the first occurrence of an object in the internal ArrayList or in a portion of it.

Returns the index of the item in the collection (by key)

Inserts an element into the internal ArrayList at the specified index

Determines if this element is marked for deletion. Note that this base implementation must be overridden in order to support RemoveMarkedItems() for a partular collection.

Verifies the item is an acceptable type. Generally this is a test like "return (item is [class]);".

Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.

Recalculates the internal hash

Removes the first occurrence of a specific object from the collection

Remove the specified item from the collection.

Removes the element at the specified index

Removes the properties marked for deletion.

Removes the element at the specified index

Sets an item's value at the specified index.

Sets an item's value at the string index indicated by the parameters.

Sort the list by its key value.

Sort the collection using the provided comparer.

Returns a String that represents the current Object.

Truncate the array starting at the specified index.

Called when the collection is cleared allowing a derived class to clean up.

Determines if the object value is equal to another object. If the two objects are null, then this returns true. There is special handling for guid comparisons (since a guid could be a string formatted in up to 3 different ways). If the special guid handling is not performed, then the object.Equals method is used.
