如何将一系列项目添加到 IList？

Question

There is no AddRange() method for IList<T> .

How can I add a list of items to an IList<T> without iterating through the items and using the Add() method?

Answer 1

If you look at the C# source code for List<T> , I think List<T>.AddRange() has optimizations that a simple loop doesn't address. So, an extension method should simply check to see if the IList<T> is a List<T>, and if so use its native AddRange().

Poking around the source code, you see the .NET folks do similar things in their own LINQ extensions for things like .ToList() (if it is a list, cast it... otherwise create it).

public static class IListExtension
{
    public static void AddRange<T>(this IList<T> list, IEnumerable<T> items)
    {
        if (list == null) throw new ArgumentNullException(nameof(list));
        if (items == null) throw new ArgumentNullException(nameof(items));

        if (list is List<T> asList)
        {
            asList.AddRange(items);
        }
        else
        {
            foreach (var item in items)
            {
                list.Add(item);
            }
        }
    }
}

AddRange is defined on List<T> , not the interface.

You can declare the variable as List<T> instead of IList<T> or cast it to List<T> in order to gain access to AddRange .

((List<myType>)myIList).AddRange(anotherList);

This is not good practice (see comments below), as an IList<T> might not be a List<T> , but some other type that implemented the interface and may very well not have an AddRange method - in such a case, you will only find out when your code throws an exception at runtime.

So, unless you know for certain that the type is indeed a List<T> , you shouldn't try to use AddRange .

One way to do so is by testing the type with the is or as operators (since C# 7).

if(myIList is List<T>)
{
   // can cast and AddRange
}
else
{
   // iterate with Add
}

You could do something like this:

IList<string> oIList1 = new List<string>{"1","2","3"};
IList<string> oIList2 = new List<string>{"4","5","6"};
IList<string> oIList3 = oIList1.Concat(oIList2).ToList();

So, basically you would use the Concat() extension and ToList() to get a similar functionality as AddRange() .

You could also write an extension method like this:

internal static class EnumerableHelpers
{
    public static void AddRange<T>(this IList<T> collection, IEnumerable<T> items)
    {
        foreach (var item in items)
        {
            collection.Add(item);
        }
    }
}

Usage:

IList<int> collection = new MyCustomList(); //Or any other IList except for a fixed-size collection like an array
var items = new[] {1, 4, 5, 6, 7};
collection.AddRange(items);

Which is still iterating over items, but you don't have to write the iteration or cast every time you call it.

Answer 5

Another answer using LINQ, provided the thing you're adding is a List<T> or you are able to call ToList() on it:

IEnumerable<string> toAdd = new string[] {"a", "b", "c"};
IList<string> target = new List<string>();

toAdd.ToList().ForEach(target.Add);

Answer 6

IList 没有 AddRange() ，但有结合你的集合的 Concat()

Answer 7

var var1 = output.listDepartment1
var var2 = output.listDepartment2  
var1.AddRange(var2);
var list = var1;
