How can i use Dictionary.Any(Function(x)) with a List(of(keyvaluepair(of String, String) VB.NET
I'm currently using the following code and it works very well, at getting the paragraphs from a Word document that matches the keywords on my dictionary, the only problem is that dictionaries don't allow duplicates, i want to know how could i use a List(of(keyvaluepair(of string, string) the same way im using the dictionary at the where clause.
Examples:
Working perfectly with the dictionary, except some, there are duplicates in key with the same value that I need to place.
filelistDict.Add("date", "Date")
filelistDict.Add("july", "Date")
filelistDict.Add("1", "Date")
filelistDict.Add("1", "Number")
filelistDict.Add("one", "Number")
Dim matchQuery4 = From para As Paragraph In doc.Paragraphs
Where filelistDict.Any(Function(s) Regex.IsMatch(para.Range.Text, "(_|-)" + Regex.Escape(s.Key) + "|b" + Regex.Escape(s.Key) + "b|" + Regex.Escape(s.Key) + "(_|-)", RegexOptions.IgnoreCase))
Select para
I want to achieve the same result but with the following list, which allows the duplicates but I don't know how to implement in the linq code.
Dim WordsDictionary As List(Of KeyValuePair(Of String, String))
Dim matchQuery4 = From para As Paragraph In doc.Paragraphs
Where WordsDictionary.Any(Function(s) Regex.IsMatch(para.Range.Text, "(_|-)" + Regex.Escape(s.Key) + "|b" + Regex.Escape(s.Key) + "b|" + Regex.Escape(s.Key) + "(_|-)", RegexOptions.IgnoreCase))
Select para
vb.net list linq dictionary keyvaluepair

Have you tested anything? What makes you think it won't work?

Yeah i have do some test, the problem is i haven't find a way to access from the Function(s) the objects within the list. Additionally lists doesn't have a method called Any. I believe if i could make it look at the object within i will be able to use any, but no luck so far.

List<T>
implementsIEnumerable<T>
and this will enable the use of thebool Any<T>(this IEnumerable<T> source)
under the namespaceSystem.Linq
. Are you sure you're not missing the using directive?

Sorry, the language you're using is VB so if you import the namespaceSystem.Linq
in the beginning of the file you'll have access to the extension methodPublic Function Any(Of T)(source as IEnumerable(Of T)) As Boolean
In fact, when you're usingfilelistDict.Any
you're using the exact same extension method, since dictionaries do not implement a method called Any, it just implementsICollection(Of KeyValuePair(Of TKey, TValue))
which in turn inherits fromIEnumerable(Of KeyValuePair(Of TKey, TValue))
