Chili.Opf3 Namespace > Generic ObjectSet Class > BinarySearch Method : BinarySearch(T,Generic IComparer) Method




item
The object to locate. The value can be null for reference types.
comparer
The comparer implementation to use when comparing elements or null to use the default comparer.
Searches the entire sorted ObjectSet for an element using the specified comparer and returns the zero-based index of the element.

Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration) 
Overloads Public Function BinarySearch( _
   ByVal item As T, _
   ByVal comparer As IComparer(Of T) _
) As Integer
Visual Basic (Usage)Copy Code
Dim instance As ObjectSet(Of T)
Dim item As T
Dim comparer As IComparer(Of T)
Dim value As Integer
 
value = instance.BinarySearch(item, comparer)
C# 
public int BinarySearch( 
   T item,
   IComparer<T> comparer
)
Managed Extensions for C++ 
public: int BinarySearch( 
   T item,
   IComparer<T>* comparer
) 
C++/CLI 
public:
int BinarySearch( 
   T item,
   IComparer<T>^ comparer
) 

Parameters

item
The object to locate. The value can be null for reference types.
comparer
The comparer implementation to use when comparing elements or null to use the default comparer.

Return Value

The zero-based index of item in the sorted ObjectSet, if item is found; otherwise, a negative number, which is the bitwise complement of the index of the next element that is larger than item or, if there is no larger element, the bitwise complement of Count.

Exceptions

ExceptionDescription
