StringList

Description

The StringList class implements an object that is a dynamic array of strings.

Comment

A dynamic array of strings is an analog of the ArrayList dynamic array, each element of which keeps string value. General principles of working with dynamic array of strings are the same as with the ArrayList array. Array capacity is set in the Capacity property. To add elements to the array, use the Add, or AddRange methods. An array may also be obtained by decomposition of a string, using any separator. To do this, use the AsString and Text properties. Sorting and various kinds of search of the elements are available in the array.

Class object properties inherited from IStringList

	Property name	Brief description
	AsString	The AsString property determines an array as a text string using separator - {Line feed}.
	Capacity	The Capacity property determines the size of memory that is allocated for array elements.
	Item	The Item property returns the element value of a string array.
	ItemLength	The ItemLength property returns array element length.
	Text	The Text property determines the array as a text string using a separator passed as an input parameter.

Class object methods inherited from IStringList

	Method name	Brief description
	Add	The Add method adds a new element with the specified value to the end of array and returns its index.
	AddRange	The AddRange method adds the specified collection of elements to the end of array.
	BinarySearch	The BinarySearch method executes binary search of elements in array.
	BinarySearchRange	The BinarySearchRange method executes binary search of the element in array range.
	Clear	The Clear method clears an array.
	Clone	The Clone method creates a copy of the array.
	Contains	The Contains method checks if an element exists.
	CopyFrom	The CopyFrom method copies data from a source.
	GetRange	The GetRange method returns array range.
	IndexOf	The IndexOf method directly searches for value.
	IndexOfPos	The IndexOfPos method directly searches for value starting from the specified value.
	IndexOfRange	The IndexOfRange method directly searches for the element in array range.
	Insert	The Insert method inserts the element into the specified position.
	InsertRange	The InsertRange method inserts collection of elements into target position.
	LastIndexOf	The LastIndexOf method reversely searches for value.
	LastIndexOfPos	The LastIndexOfPos method reversely searches for a value starting from the specified element.
	LastIndexOfRange	The LastIndexOfRange method reversely searches for the element in array range.
	Remove	The Remove method removes element by the value.
	RemoveAt	The RemoveAt method removes element by the index.
	RemoveRange	The RemoveRange method removes element range.
	Reverse	The Reverse method inverts the array.
	ReverseRange	The ReverseRange method inverts the array range.
	Sort	The Sort method sorts the array in ascending order.
	SortRange	The SortRange method sorts array range.
	ToArray	The ToArray method converts into standard string array.
	TrimToSize	The TrimToSize method sets memory size, occupied by the array, that is equal to actual number of elements in the array.
