Inserts an item to the IList<T> at the specified index.

Namespace:  System.Collections.Generic
Assembly:  mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Sub Insert ( _
    index As Integer, _
    item As T _
)

void Insert(
    int index,
    T item
)

Parameters

  • index
    Type: System.Int32
    The zero-based index at which item should be inserted.
  • item
    Type: T
    The object to insert into the IList<T>.

Exceptions

Exception Condition
ArgumentOutOfRangeException

index is not a valid index in the IList<T>.
NotSupportedException

The IList<T> is read-only.

Remarks

If index equals the number of items in the IList<T>, then item is appended to the list.

In collections of contiguous elements, such as lists, the elements that follow the insertion point move down to accommodate the new element. If the collection is indexed, the indexes of the elements that are moved are also updated. This behavior does not apply to collections where elements are conceptually grouped into buckets, such as a hash table.
