VB.NET Core Classes in a Nutshell

Name

ICollection

Synopsis

This interface defines the basic characteristics of collection objects and implements three properties. Count gets the number of elements contained in a collection; IsSynchronized indicates whether the collection is thread-safe, and SyncRoot returns an object that synchronizes access to the collection (this is the object itself if the implementing class does not provide a Synchronized() method). ICollection also implements the CopyTo() method for copying elements to an Array object at a specified index.
